The Inspection and Control Commission is known to have uncovered serious violations in connection with the audit of the “Official Sea of Official Shooting Case”, which is controversial in the political arena when former president Moon Jae- in refused to conduct a written investigation.
The Board of Audit and Inspection plans to request an investigation from the prosecution into those involved in illegal matters after the field audit ends in mid-February.
It is noted that there is a high possibility of passing the ball to the prosecution, leaving the contents of former President Moon blank.
A Board of Audit and Inspection official on the 4th said, “Yes,” said Yonhap News , when asked if serious offenders had been caught during the audit. .
In the press release of the previous day, the Board of Auditors and Inspection also stated: “The actual audit will end on the 14th of this month.
We plan to request an investigation upon completion of the field inspection for those found in serious violations and to briefly inform the public of the details. “
The official, however, did not mention who the person was who was found illegal.
The audits by the Board of Audit and Inspection are conducted in the following phases: “Field Audit”, where people meet and investigate at the site of the audited entity, “Gathering of opinions” to hear the vocation and opinions of the audited institution in relation to the problems identified in the on-site audit and draw up an audit report.
The prepared audit report is finalized only after review and resolution of the audit committee.
Even with such a procedure, the request for an investigation immediately after the end of the field audit and before the audit report is finalized can be interpreted as the opinion of the audit and inspection commission that the matter is so serious .
Another official explained: “The Audit Committee does not require a resolution from the Audit Committee to request an investigation into the audited entity. It did.
The possibility of the Board of Audit and Inspection attempting to re-deliver the questionnaire to former President Moon Jae-in, who declined a written investigation late last month, appears to have diminished slightly.
President Moon strongly opposed the Council’s request to conduct a written investigation, saying it was “extremely rude” and the opposition Democratic Party of Korea (Democratic Party) declared an all-out fight, calling it “political retaliation.” “. the audit will not be completed in its current state.
The Audit and Inspection Board decided to finish the on-site audit on the 14th, so there isn’t much time realistically.
In a press release released in the afternoon of the same day, the Board of Auditors and Inspections stated: “Through the previous investigation, we have already grasped the general facts”.
It is interpreted as an explanation that although former President Moon, former National Security Bureau director Suh Hoon, and former National Intelligence Director Park Ji-won refused to investigate, the outlines of lawlessness and injustice that have occurred in the management process of the attacks in the West Sea are outlined.
A Board of Audit and Inspection official said, “There is no set policy at this time” regarding the plan to resubmit the questionnaire to former President Moon.
