Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol is leaving the government building on the afternoon of the 25th at the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office in Seocho-gu, Seoul.

Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol, who returned to work due to the decision of the court, went to work on the afternoon of the 26th following Christmas on the 25th to receive reports on the investigation of pending issues such as the investigation of the’Wolseong Nuclear Power Plant Unit 1′. President Yoon went to work the day before and received reports of his work accumulated during his suspension period.
According to the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office, Yun is scheduled to go to work around 2 pm on this day. Deputy Chief Prosecutor Nam-gwan Cho and Secretary-General Bok Doo-gyu will report and deal with the issues, including the issue of coordination of the investigative powers. The day before, the response to the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19) was given priority, and there was no report on the investigation of pending issues such as the nuclear power plant investigation, so it is expected that the day will be devoted to the investigation of the pending issue.
As Yoon returns to work, it is predicted that’power-type investigations’ such as the Cheong Wa Dae Ulsan mayoral election intervention case, the economic operation of the Wolseong nuclear power plant, and the Optimus case will receive momentum. In the two previous interrogations, Yoon said, “The absence of the prosecutor general for two months in the investigation of an important case will cause a big setback.” As soon as the court’s decision to suspend the suspension was made on the 1st, Yoon approved a request for an arrest warrant for three officials from the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, who are suspected of deleting nuclear power sources.
However, if Justice Minister Choo Mi-ae replaces the investigation team and the command line at the prosecution’s regular personnel scheduled for early January, the investigation could be disrupted. Therefore, there is a possibility that Yun will discuss the countermeasures for this in advance.
On the 25th, the day after the court’s decision to suspend execution for’two months of honesty’, President Yoon returned to work immediately with the Christmas holiday. After going to work, Deputy Chief Prosecutor Nam-gwan Cho and Secretary-General Bok Doo-gyu, and President Yoon, who settled lunch with lunch, presided over a’Corona 19 related countermeasure meeting’. At the meeting, measures were discussed in response to the outbreak of massive COVID-19 outbreak in the Eastern Detention Center in Seoul.
The previous day, in front of the great sword, about 20 “Welcome to Return” wreaths worn by the supporters of President Yoon were placed. Ahead of President Yoon’s return to work on this day, citizens and supporters of Yun, who oppose the return of President Yoon, shouted to each other, saying, “Suk-yeol Yoon fight” and “Suk-yeol Yoon withdraw”, but there was no physical conflict.
