Former director Hwang Hee-seok, informant X is’no charge’
Accordingly, the Legislative Solidarity (Law Refinement) to set up the rule of law accused CEO Choi, Hwang Hee-seok, former head of the Ministry of Justice’s Human Rights Bureau, and Mr. Jimo, who is called “Informer X,” for conspiracy to defamation and obstruction of business by spreading false information. At the time, Beop Se-ryun argued that “CEO Choi’s social network service (SNS) article, filled with manipulation and fabrication, was a political maneuver that attempted to manipulate public opinion, and was a heinous personality murder that caused an indelible wound to the former reporter.”
However, the prosecutors’ prosecution has filed an unprosecution against former director Hwang and Mr. Ji. It was judged that it was difficult to see that these three people conspired to write Choi’s SNS posts.
Regarding this, a high-ranking prosecution official said, “This is a result that shows that the nature of the’conflict of authority’ was not’convergence of prosecution’. As the Seoul Central District Attorney General Lee Seong-yoon approved this case, he was not charged with prosecutor Han Dong-hoon, both sides of the coin. There was a greater reason to make a decision. If not, avoiding responsibility”
