This year’s national audit of the Legislative Judiciary Committee of the National Assembly turns into a head-on conflict between Justice Minister Chu Mi-ae and Attorney General Yoon Seok-yeol, and is signaled from within and outside the profession that the ‘reform of the people’s prosecutor’s office’ disappeared.
Minister Chu produced the ‘inspection card’ that was addressed to Yoon, and Yoon, who poured his intentional comments towards Minister Chu, sparked a wave of political affairs with comments that could be interpreted as having opened the possibility of entering politics. after your retirement. · It has also been criticized that the prosecutor’s head only reveals conflict and causes public unrest.
As reported by the National Assembly on the 27th, the audit of state affairs of the judicial commission was carried out by the Ministry of Justice on the 12th and the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office on the 22nd, and the general audit was completed the day before (26).
The opposition party’s offensive focused on the fact that the suspicion of Choo’s son Seomo’s military vacation was dismissed under the National Supervision of the Ministry of Justice on the 12th and the conflict with Yoon was not highlighted. The situation changed dramatically when the Ministry of Justice carried out a direct inspection of the first “inside entry statement” issued by former Star Mobility president Kim Bong-hyun (arrest charge). Unlike the staff, he said it could not be ruled out, such as the suspicion of not conducting a full investigation.
Through the great swordsman, Yun strongly objected to “slander”, and this led to his intentional comments in the Supreme Swordsman’s Office on the 22nd, “Slander is the most decent word I can use.”
When asked about his retirement from the government office after midnight, President Yoon said, “I will slowly think about how to serve the society and the people.” He said: “It is difficult to talk about whether politics is included.” With this initiation the politics of the long-awaited Suk-yeol Yoon theory was discussed, and an inappropriate reaction emerged even within the indictment.
The day before, Minister Chu immediately criticized this as “a statement that crosses the line as the attorney general who must maintain political neutrality,” and raised the pressure level by twice mentioning oversight of the general public after the launch of the investigation command. In addition to the suspicion of misconduct by prosecutors related to Lime and the reports of spying reports by opposition politicians, he was also going to inspect the meeting Δ with the owner of the media Δ the alleged disposition of the National Agency for Radio in the case of the Optimus commission.
It is difficult to find a precedent for prosecuting the attorney general against the attorney general. Yang Hong-seok, who served as director of the Center for Public Interest Law of Participatory Solidarity, said: “Investigation is investigation about investigation, supervision is supervision.” It didn’t happen. “Jeong Woong-seok, a professor at the Korean Association for Criminal Procedure Law, noted that” the more the Ministry of Justice continues to conduct inspections and investigations in relation to the Supreme Swordsman, the more political neutrality becomes a problem. “
Regarding President Yoon’s comments, criticism was poured out, focusing on his passport, saying, ‘Isn’t it the actions of the politician?’ In this regard, Professor Jeong suggested: “It is not desirable that judicial institutions are connected to politics and continue to attract them.” “What to do in the future is a personal choice, and now, rather, we need to create a good environment so that we can be loyal to the starter.” did.
Regarding the “prosecution reform”, it was assessed that both Minister Chu and President Yoon had a point to criticize.
Professor Jeong regretted that “the original prosecution reform slogan was not everywhere, and only the conflict between the Ministry of Justice and the great sword was exposed under national control.” Both lawyers also said, “I don’t care much about reforms, like Chu’s or Yun’s, so can you evaluate them based on that?”
