[앵커]
A nervous war between the high-ranking public officials criminal investigation office and the prosecution is escalating over the suspicion of a ban on illegal departure from former Vice Minister of Justice Kim Hak-eui.
When the air defense department handed over the case back to the prosecutors’ office and demanded that the case be sent back to the prosecutors’ office, the prosecutor’s investigation team leader directly refuted that it was a strange logic.

The controversy is growing over the official letter sent by Kim Jin-wook, the head of the high-ranking officials’ criminal investigations, re-forwarding the illegal departure of Kim Hak-eui to the Suwon District Prosecutor’s Office.
After the prosecution had completed the investigation, they requested that the case be sent to the public prosecutors’ office to determine whether a prosecution was filed.
When the prosecution protested whether the prosecution was exercising the authority of the investigation, the Ministry of Airborne said in an additional statement that only the investigation part was handed over to the prosecution, but the right to file a prosecution still belongs to the airlift.
Then, this time, the head of the prosecution’s investigation team, Suwon District Prosecutor’s Office, 3rd Detective Lee Jeong-seop, countered the air defense agency’s claim head-on.
Specifically, he argued that the meaning of ‘transition’ is an act of sending the ‘case’ to another agency to exercise authority, such as investigation and prosecution, and that the airborne agency no longer has the authority to engage in the case.
As long as the airlift has returned the case stating that it will not exercise its authority under the airlifting law, the prosecutor who has relocated the case can prosecute any number of prosecutions in accordance with the powers stipulated in the Criminal Procedure Act and the Prosecutors’ Office Act.
At the same time, the Ministry of Public Affairs sent an official letter to Song Chi before the prosecution and strongly criticized that it was using a weird logic because it could not be corrected.
On the other hand, Minister of Public Affairs Kim Jin-wook once again made it clear that there was no problem with requesting Songchi after the investigation was completed.
However, as the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office has not yet come out, it is reported that it is internally reviewing how to make additional positions.

Once the case has been handed over, the prosecution is also speeding up the investigation.
First of all, on the afternoon of the 16th, Cha Gyu-geun, head of the Immigration and Foreigner Policy Headquarters of the Ministry of Justice, will be called again to investigate.
This is the first summons after the arrest warrant is dismissed.
Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office Lee Seong-yoon, the core of the’external pressure suspicion,’ who has always refused to attend while requesting a repatriation from the airlift, is also planning to notify the summons again.
In spite of the fact that the Ministry of Justice has not extended the dispatch of prosecutors to the investigation team, conflict is intensifying, and how quickly the prosecution can resolve suspicions is expected to be the key to determining the initiative in the case.
