Je-won Jang, representative of the people’s force : “Will the reviewing prosecutors catch criminals without so much ambition? The minister listens to them and embraces them with big arms. Not the 300 prosecutors resist the prosecution reform. (I) believe that the prosecution reform is the way forward. Minister) should not be afraid, you should not only play the role of father, you should also play the role of mother.
Justice Minister Chu Mi-ae, who had been hardened the entire time, smiled at Representative Jang’s words. “Thank you for listening to the good words,” he said, “I will communicate well with the prosecutors and read the environment well so that they can participate in the reform.” It is at the budget review meeting of the Legislative Judicial Committee of the National Assembly on the morning of the 5th.
That’s all for Minister Chu’s mild reply. It was a position on the ‘cyber swordsman’ that led to the so-called ‘exit’ of the prosecutors. At the meeting, instead of discussing the budget bill, from the massive opposition of several prosecutors raised in the internal network of the prosecution, Epros, a fiery message of confrontation between Minister Chu and Attorney General Yoon Seok -yeol went up and down the table.
“I have a great responsibility to command and oversee the duty of neutrality before the president goes too far.”
In particular, Minister Chu criticized Attorney General Yoon Seok-yeol in a strong tone, adding expressions such as “Defiance of democracy” and “Anything against the historical spirit” to the statements made on the 3rd at a conference for the new prosecutor. boss. In particular, it took a long time to refute the “French Revolution” with the emphasis on the “investigation of living power” and the historical origin of the trial system. The prosecution brought up the investigation of former Justice Minister Cho Kook and emphasized that this is not the “living power investigation” that Yoon refers to.
Minister Chu said, “From the perspective of the Blue House chief civilian, the subpoena case related to children’s entrance examinations is not a power-type corruption,” he said. “(With such an investigation) it is not desirable to destroy the democratic system by shaking the regime or attacking the government (the minister is the president). I have a great responsibility to command and supervise myself to maintain my neutral duty before going too far.”
The prosecution also launched an investigation into Lee Myung-bak. Minister Chu said: “The prosecutors themselves investigated the dozen homeowners, but were finally convicted by the court ruling after 13 years. At that time, the prosecutors were in fact attached to the living power and did not shut up even the prosecutors. they gave indulgences, but to an interview. ” Now) pointed out that the prosecution is causing public disturbances because it is controlling itself.
When Yun mentioned the prosecution’s story, he criticized it saying, “It is very regrettable that I borrowed it without forgetting the spirit of the French Revolution.” Shin Dong-geun, a legislator for the Democratic Party, was the response to the claim that the prosecution was the old system (Ancien Regime), the object of the revolution. Minister Chu said, “The prosecution system, which started as a public prosecutor, implements justice for the people, not for the interests of the prosecution.”

The opposition party drew an example from the “living power investigation” carried out by the current government. The investigation into allegations of Cheongwadae Ulsan Mayor’s electoral intervention, the suspicion of Choo’s son’s preferential military leave, and the suspicion of Optimus’ political relations lobbying was refuted by Minister Chu’s standards that “it is not an investigation of desirable power. “
Joo-Hye Jeon, Representative of the People’s Power : “Isn’t the case of intervention in the Ulsan mayoral elections (as the minister says) a purely proxy-type corruption investigation?”
Chu Miae : “I do not agree that it is a corruption of the power type. As a representative of a party, I led the electoral process with a nomination from the system, but I cannot agree with the suspicion that some promises govern the electoral board” .
Jeon joo-hye : “Optimus’ political relations lobbying investigation, isn’t this a living power investigation?”
Chu Miae : “It is not known whether the living power was involved or not. If it is determined that way, people will misunderstand it.”
When asked about his son, Minister Chu raised his voice and said, “Well then, quickly launch the air defense department (senior officials criminal investigation department).” This is because a former legislator pointed out that it was an ‘unfair investigation’ due to the fact that the Seoul Eastern District Prosecutor’s Office concluded that it was not suspicious of a request for a further investigation by the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office. Minister Chu further exclaimed, “Isn’t it necessary to apologize a bit now (in the opposition party)? It’s really frustrating. What kind of budget are you reconsidering?”
On the contrary, the ruling party kept hitting General Yun directly. Democratic Party lawmaker So Byung-cheol said there were rumors that “the attorney general will be willing to allocate special activities expenses for the great swordsman” and asked him to submit data on the increase or decrease of special activities expenses. . Minister Chu replied, “Because there is no standard, but special expenses are charged to the great swordsman, the president is randomly executed.”
Representative Shin Dong-geun said, “As soon as Yoon visited the Daejeon District Prosecutor’s Office on the 29th of last month, the Daejeon District Prosecutor’s Office confiscated and searched the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy in connection with the suspicious manipulation of the economic viability assessment of Wolseong Unit 1. The manager was assigned and a contract investigation was requested. ”Minister Chu also said:“ I am concerned that (the president) is abusing the power of the prosecution for political purposes “.
