Chu Mi-ae’s son’s position reversed “KATUSA soldier’s American and Korean military regulations apply.”

Regarding the controversy over the preferential treatment of Seo Mo, the son of Judicial Prosecutor Chu Mi-ae, while in the military, Seo annulled the previous position that ‘KATUSA soldiers follow United States military regulations’ ‘.

On the 9th, Mr. Seo’s attorney, Geun-taek Hyun, appeared on the CBS Radio news program ‘Kim Hyun-jung’ and said, “If the US military regulations apply, the armed forces Korean regulations will not apply, and if Korean military regulations apply, US military regulations will not apply. Apply. ”

This refutes the statement of the Ministry of National Defense that “there is no separate licensing regulation that applies to KATUSA soldiers, and the same rules that army soldiers apply to the 120 barracks life regulations”, which nullified Mr. Seo’s previous argument.

The current attorney said: “KATUSA Soldier regulations state that exits are the same as those of the USFK. The approval procedure is said to be carried out by the Army Chief of Staff. “It is exactly wrong that both the KATUSA Soldier Regulations and the Army Regulations apply, but only the Army Regulations apply.”
On this day, the current lawyer raised his voice by having a sermon with Congressman Jeon Joo-hye, who sparked a controversy over Seo’s preferential military service treatment.

The former legislator faced the argument of the current lawyer and said: “For KATUSA soldiers, they follow the Army regulations. The Ministry of Defense also responded (to the National Assembly) that the army license system was applied ”.

He said: “In accordance with the Yuk-Gyu Barracks 120 Housing Regulations, after requesting a request for deliberation from the medical care review committee installed in the military hospital, the next military hospital will issue a leave order in accordance with the resolution of deliberation approved “. “I said,” I would, and then I submitted a medical certificate. Is it possible for the Republic of Korea Armed Forces to handle sick leave? ”

“Even if you look at the KATUSA Soldiers Regulations, if the anticipated hospitalization date is more than 10 days, it stipulates that the soldier must be admitted to the military hospital. This assumes that the hospitalization date is very long. Like Mr. Seo, you have never been hospitalized during the extended period of sick leave. “If you have never been admitted to the hospital during the 3 days of your first sick leave and received no hospital treatment during the extended period, this is not the reason for prolonged sick leave “.

“This case is a question of justice. If there was any injustice, preference, or illegality, then Minister Chu should be held accountable. “

The former legislator also said: “Lawyer Seo argues that there is no problem with the hospital that performed the knee surgery had a medical report and a medical certificate, but it was not painful, it hurt and that is not a problem. The important thing is legal and fair (compared to other common soldiers). “Is it through procedure?”

“In the case of Minister Chu’s son, the 19-day sick leave record, which was from June 5 to 23, does not have any data. “This is probably the only case.”

In this regard, the current lawyer said: “It is not part of us to get involved in the fact that military records are not kept. No one. During the war, the battalion commander ordered “Advance forward”. Document this. It is done verbally. “

“In the content of the Yangju Armed Forces Hospital, there is a content that requires sick leave for 10 days, and it is sent to the investigation agency.” He said he approved it verbally. There is no personnel order, but since he said there was an order, there is no problem with the process ”.

“I don’t think there is any problem because the military asked me to do that, so I sent the documents later. He said the term “parental opportunity for the emperor’s vacation” is an excessive political offensive.
