[사설] The ruling party, how long will the lie Supreme Court cover it?

The judge punishes the liar. Tried for perjury. However, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court lied. In addition, the fact that such a lie was sent in an answer in the name of the Supreme Court was a perjury to the National Assembly, and the situation was raised that it conspired to impeach a judge. He pledged several times, saying,’I will respond resolutely and resolutely to unfair external attacks that infringe on the independence of the trial’, but it was only words. Thus, it is said that the Supreme Court Chief Kim Myung-soo is at the peak of a political judge wearing only legal uniforms.

Eight former presidents of the Korea Byeonhyup made a statement yesterday stating, “For the independence of the judiciary, Chief Justice Kim must resign immediately.” They pointed out that “The Supreme Court of the Supreme Court, who lies in front of the people and lies in front of the people, rather than showing willingness to defend the independence of the judiciary against unjust pressure from the ruling political forces that seriously threatens the independence of the judiciary.” The Korean Law School also said, “If you look at the words and actions of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, you can only see that you are left and right to political power. It is questionable whether the chief of the Supreme Court, who deceived the people, can be recognized as the head of the judiciary.”

Civic groups accusing him of the prosecution have followed, and voices of criticism within the court are growing. It is natural. Even with the’Liar Chief Justice’ alone, ordinary people fall into great shock and self-destruction. At this point, it is common sense and reasonable to resign on your own. However, Chief Justice Kim, who has entered the endurance, does not even show signs of embarrassment. It is an excuse to remember that it’s an old thing, but that’s a technique commonly used by’politicians’. If it is a proper National Assembly, it should be impeached immediately. That is why there is an impeachment system.

However, the massive ruling party, which bluntly impeached the innocent judge, is in fact all-out war on the cover and protection of the perjured Supreme Court chief. Yesterday’s top committee’s back stated, “If Supreme Court Chief Kim accepted the resignation (by Deputy Chief Justice Seong-geun Lim), it would have violated the public opinion and undermined the authority of the judiciary.” Force and sophistry poured out. There was also a remark that criticized the entire judge, saying, “It is greed to maintain privileges with (the judiciary) independence as a weapon.” Perhaps it includes the intention to tame the entire courts and judges by wrapping the chief justice on our side in vain.

The reason for the existence of courts is to identify lies and realize justice, and the Chief Justice has a constitutional responsibility to defend the judiciary and the independence of judges. The impeachment system for judges is to identify judges who undermine the separation of powers. In the parliament that makes the law and the judiciary that protects the law, there is an absurd thing that undermines the separation of powers and rule of law. Can the ruling party and the Supreme Court still tell the people to obey the law and follow the judgment? Are you entitled to justice?
