Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol, who had been on the defensive with the “super storm” of Justice Minister Chu Mi-ae, who called the prosecutor general’s job exclusion and disciplinary disposition, returned as a “big figure” with a consecutive victory. On the other hand, Minister Chu, who expressed his appreciation for driving out Yun, is facing a disgraceful exit with the worst results. The two-man’s death-death match, which started from the beginning of the year, is a phase that ends with a complete victory by President Yoon at the end of the year.
Momentum, etc. Chu Mi-ae was struggling with 3 consecutive losses
In the beginning, Minister Chu, who had a fight, was on the rise. Minister Chu held an emergency press conference on the 24th of last month and announced a request for exclusion and disciplinary action from the incumbent prosecutor general in history, and pressed Yun. Among the reasons for disciplinary action, the suspicion of “Illegal Inspection of the Court of Justice” was a particularly weak point for Yoon. During the time of the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office, President Yoon led the investigation of the’Judical Nongdan’, which said that the judges were disadvantaged in terms of personnel by writing a document’Review of Personnel Measures for Judicial Justices’. According to the Ministry of Justice’s announcement, it was enough to be criticized for doing similar things at the prosecutors’ office, who put strict standards on the’inspection inside the judiciary’.
Yun had no way to respond to the attack by Minister Chu except by filing an administrative lawsuit and receiving court judgment. This is because the Prosecutor’s Disciplinary Committee of the Ministry of Justice, which will decide on the disciplinary action of President Yun, was in fact controlled by Minister Chu from the composition of the committee to the decision. As President Yoon, it was an atmosphere that was inevitable.
However, in the process of requesting inspection and disciplinary action against General Yoon, circumstances that did not follow the normal procedure were revealed one after another, creating an opportunity for reversal. It was known that the provisions of the Inspection Committee, which were obligated to hold important inspection matters, were revised to voluntary regulations, and the internal disclosure of prosecutors who were classified on the side of the Minister Chu was also followed. Justice Department Prosecutor Ryu Hyuk, who is in charge of the Ministry of Justice’s prosecution service, was found to have been excluded from the decision making, and Prosecutor Lee Jeong-hwa, who was sent to the Ministry of Justice’s prosecutor’s office, also revealed the fact that the’no crime report was deleted’.
Prosecutors protested, pointing out the unfairness of the process, which is the core of law enforcement. At 59 front-line prosecutors’ offices across the country, meetings were held, pointing out the unfairness of the exclusion and disciplinary claim of President Yun, and rebelled against Minister Chu. Both the Deputy Prosecutor Nam-gwan Cho and the Chief Prosecutor of the High Prosecutors’ Office made an unusual voice requesting the withdrawal of the disciplinary action, and even the Deputy Minister of Justice Koki-yeong, who was assisting Minister Chu, resigned.
The internal disclosure and opposition of prosecutors narrowed the position of Minister Chu, and the Prosecutors’ Commission of the Ministry of Justice and the courts successively raised his hands. Eventually, General Yoon returned to the prosecution after a week of exclusion. On the 1st of this month, the Ministry of Justice’s Supervisory Commission adopted a recommendation that “the request for inspection and disciplinary action by President Yoon of the Ministry of Justice is unfair due to a procedural defect.” Subsequently, the 4th administrative division of the Seoul Administrative Court (Director Mi-yeon Cho) cited the request for suspension of the exclusion of duties, filed by President Yoon against Minister Chu.
Despite successive defeats, Minister Chu pulled out the last card, calling for a disciplinary claim for President Yun. However, controversy over procedural violations such as an application for evasion of disciplinary members arose again at the Prosecutor and Disciplinary Committee of the Ministry of Justice held twice on the 10th and 15th of this month. Nevertheless, the disciplinary committee, composed of officials from Minister Chu, decided on a two-month honest disciplinary action against Yun. President Moon Jae-in, who had virtually tolerated the policy to seek disciplinary action by President Yoon, also approved the request of Minister Chu after 14 hours of resolution.
However, the court once again served as an assistant to President Yun. On the 24th, in the case of an application for suspension of disciplinary disposition, Yoon raised his hand again and finally won a complete victory over Minister Chu.
Yoon Seok-yeol revived after being honest in 2013
Inside the prosecution, there is a story that “Yun Seok-yeol has survived again” referring to the past incident in which Yoon was demoted and then returned to his splendor. At the time of the National Intelligence Service in 2013, he revealed that he was under pressure from the’superior’ in the process of investigating comments from the National Intelligence Service, but was relegated after being disciplined for one month for suspension. After joining the Special Prosecutors’ Team Park Young-soo who uncovered the Gukjeong Nongdan case, President Yoon revived, and at the same time as the Moon Jae-in government was launched, he was selected as the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office and took over as president.
Minister Chu, who expressed his appreciation to President Moon on the 16th by offering his disciplinary action to President Yoon, did not say anything about his return to President Yoon. A passport official said, “The failure to print’Yoon Seok-yeol’ has no choice but to hurt not only Chu, but also the entire regime.” “At present, it is best to appoint a successor to change the atmosphere quickly.” A senior prosecutor’s office at the district prosecutor’s office said, “If the prosecution officers, who are classified as close to Minister Chu, reported facts properly and worked selflessly, they would not have come to this point.”
