[정치][현장영상] “Park Beom-gye’s new nickname’onion’… points out that corruption continues to appear”

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

I am the National Power of the People Jeon Ju-hye. Congratulations on your nomination. A new nickname for the candidate was recently created. Have you ever heard of it?

[박범계 / 법무부 장관 후보자]

Please tell me.

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

It is said to have been nicknamed onion or rotten onion. The reason is that corruption continues to appear. It’s a Biri department store, we’re talking about these things.

Please answer honestly because it is a serious position today and it may be the first case of a politician fallout. The candidate is currently being tried for joint assault, right?

[박범계 / 법무부 장관 후보자]

Fast Track…

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

Let’s watch the video and ask. Unfortunately, if a candidate is appointed as minister, he will be the first minister to be tried for a criminal trial. Have you seen this video?

[영상 내용]

Democrats’ assistants start running. Then the opposition aides block the door. A fight broke out as the opposition party blocked a meeting to put airlift bills on the fast track.

But candidate Park Bum-gye, who was a member of the judiciary at the time, also jumps into this situation. Candidate Park grabs the neck of the opposition aides who were blocking the door. Then remove it from the door.

Considering this situation, the prosecution seems to have applied the charges of assault to candidate Park, saying that they tried to secure the conference hall by exercising force.

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

Do you admit this video?

[박범계 / 법무부 장관 후보자]

I know that video was shot by a reporter at JTBC, but to get that video…

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

Do you acknowledge the video?

[박범계 / 법무부 장관 후보자]

Because it was filmed, what is that…

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

Do you admit that you are the person here?

[박범계 / 법무부 장관 후보자]

Ask a question.

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

You have to give an answer. According to the video, the victim did not resist. It appears to be a one-sided violence event. Apart from the police officer, are you willing to apologize for this kind of violence?

[박범계 / 법무부 장관 후보자]

Commissioner Joo-hye Jeon, did you not come to the office this 21st April? That happened in April 2019. Here’s our esteemed opposition member…

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

Candidate now, wait a minute. Please respond to your inquiries, but first answer whether you are willing to apologize or not.

[박범계 / 법무부 장관 후보자]

This case is currently being investigated and is pending in the Seoul Southern District Court.

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

Are you saying that answering isn’t appropriate? Not only the candidate for the minister, but also the assault of the driver of the Vice Minister of Justice Lee Yong-gu is also a problem.

Do you know? Deputy Minister Lee Yong-gu’s act is assaulting the driver and may be a fine of up to 5 years or up to 20 million won under the Special Act. This also does not apply to crimes against false punishment.

At that time, the nape of the neck was this much an Olympic wound. However, this is because the medical certificate was not issued. If the medical certificate was issued, it was not an assault, but an injury or driver injury.

However, at the time, the police said that they would not have seen the black box video, which is one of the core evidences, and it was confirmed that some facts, so the police officer was placed on standby.

It’s a typical caring investigation, covering up investigation. I think this is a bigger problem. What do you think the candidate thinks about this?

[박범계 / 법무부 장관 후보자]

Commissioner Jeon Ju-hye, if I become a minister, wouldn’t I have to meet as a vice minister? The case was allocated by the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office, and I saw it on the report as a strict investigation, including the point you are talking about.

I do not judge that it is appropriate for me to take any position or say anything about this.

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

In the media and public opinion, it is said that if this is the case, Vice Minister Lee Yong-gu should resign. How are you?

[박범계 / 법무부 장관 후보자]

I am not in a position to say anything.

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

I have to take a strict responsibility, right?

[박범계 / 법무부 장관 후보자]

I think we must do a strict investigation.

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

I took a strict responsibility.

[박범계 / 법무부 장관 후보자]

I don’t think the person responsible has yet been revealed.

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

If a rigorous investigation reveals the truth, would you ask for the corresponding responsibility?

[박범계 / 법무부 장관 후보자]

It’s a hypothetical question.

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

I will only do a strict investigation. Right now the candidate answer is something like this?

[박범계 / 법무부 장관 후보자]

I’m not in a position to do a rigorous investigation.

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

You are saying that you will try to do it. Finally, I will show you the violence video of strabismus preparations that was released earlier. It’s not a video, it’s a transcript of someone who was there.

“It’s that I’ve been questioning the background. Mr. A kneel down and said he came desperately, but candidate Park insisted that he tried to forcibly remove Mr. A’s hat for taking pictures.”

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

I’ll ask about the action. You have spoken about the process several times earlier. At that time, did the candidate say anything to the preparations? Can’t you answer?

[박범계 / 법무부 장관 후보자]

Isn’t that a pending case? It is said that you are one of our committee members who filed fifty times. I am afraid.

[전주혜 / 국민의힘 의원]

Now, this voice is not CEO Jong-bae Lee, but the voice of the person who was at the time, the voice of the student who was abused. Then they rant at this part, ask them to present their ID card, take a picture…

[박범계 / 법무부 장관 후보자]

Since you made the accusation, won’t the investigation be done?
