Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol has made an official position on the disciplinary decision.

Have you disclosed your policy to take legal action?

[기자]

President Seok-Yeol Yoon strongly opposed the disciplinary committee’s resolution of a two-month suspension as an illegal and unjust measure.

He also said that this disciplinary punishment has seriously undermined the prosecution’s political neutrality, independence, and rule of law, as an illegal procedure and unsubstantial reason to expel the prosecutor general.

He then emphasized that he would correct his mistakes according to the procedures established by the Constitution and laws.

It formalized its intention to take legal action.

The lawyers also announced that they will file an administrative lawsuit requesting that the disciplinary be canceled as soon as the disciplinary action is executed, and that it will also apply for suspension.

We have started preparing to write the complaint, and we will hold a meeting of lawyers this afternoon.

President Yun is a policy that he continues his normal business by going to work on time and leaving the office until the disciplinary action is confirmed.

This morning, as usual, I went to work in the underground parking lot around 9 o’clock, and I gave special instructions to the national prosecutors’ office to refrain from summoning small businessmen in response to the spread of Corona 19.

From the moment the disciplinary action is executed, the Deputy Prosecutor Nam-gwan Cho, the Deputy Prosecutor of the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office, will act as the president.

Of course, there is a possibility that Yoon will return to work if the request for suspension of execution is accepted by the court as in the last time.

I will also revisit the situation of the disciplinary committee yesterday.

After an overnight discussion, you decided to be honest for two months, right?

[기자]

The second deliberation of the disciplinary committee, which started at 10:30 a.m. yesterday, ended after a marathon debate, and it wasn’t until 4 a.m. today, past midnight.

A two-month suspension of disciplinary action against President Yoon Seok-yeol was decided, but this is an unprecedented disciplinary decision against the incumbent prosecutor general.

Initially, the results were expected to come out around midnight yesterday, but it seems that internal labors continued until the disciplinary level was decided.

Professor Jeong Han-jung, the chairman’s deputy chairman, said that he did not agree on the amount of disciplinary action, and as a result of continuing discussions until the majority of the quorum was reached, he decided to be suspended for two months.

Let’s hear it yourself.

However, it is said that Chief Anti-Corruption Force Chief Shin Sung-sik, who participated as a disciplinary committee member, withdrew from the final disciplinary vote.

When looking at the disciplinary charges in detail, there were six reasons for the disciplinary claim.

The disciplinary committee divided these into eight categories and made their own decisions.

First, the charges of writing and distributing an analysis document to the court, interfering with the investigation of the Channel A case, interfering with the investigation, and violating political neutrality were admitted.

Inappropriate exchanges with media owners and refusal to investigate the inspection have grounds for disciplinary action, but a decision was made to not use them as grounds for disciplinary action.

The leak of information on the investigation of the Channel A case and interference with the investigation of the case of former Prime Minister Han Myung-sook were not enough evidence and concluded that he was not charged.

Now, the two-month disciplinary punishment for suspension will be executed through the approval of President Moon Jae-in upon the request of Justice Minister Chu Mi-ae.

Minister Chu’s position on the disciplinary resolution has not yet come out, and he has spared no words on his way to work.

Let’s listen.

The prosecution’s backlash is expected, but how is the atmosphere?

[기자]

The Supreme Prosecutors’ Office has yet to come up with an official position.

However, internally, there is an atmosphere of opposition to the prosecutor general, saying that something impossible has happened to the punishment of honesty.

A prosecutor posted on the prosecution’s internal network, stating that the Minister of Justice did not seem to be willing to listen to him, saying that he directly pleaded with President Moon Jae-in, the final personnel authority.

He asked for consideration not to leave any stains on the history of justice, asking whether disciplining the prosecutor general for these procedures and reasons is part of the’a country that has never been experienced’ promised by the president when he took office.

Earlier, when Minister Choo Mi-ae ordered the suspension of his duties by requesting disciplinary action against President Yoon, there was a strong backlash inside the prosecution.

All the prosecutors at the National Prosecutors’ Office issued a statement, and most of the high-ranking officials, including the prosecutor’s office and the high prosecutor’s office, participated in the voice of the opposition.

As some observers say that collective action will begin again as the disciplinary action against the president becomes a reality, it is likely that confusion within and outside the prosecution will continue along with the litigation for the time being.
