With Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office Lee Seong-yoon in office, attention has been paid to the follow-up middle executives and the direction of their major cases. The Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office includes the’Optimus Asset Management (Optimus) Fund Fraud’, which is currently suspicious of involvement of political parties, and the’Intervention in the Blue House Ulsan Mayor’s Election’, as well as the investigation of Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol’s family and entourage, as well as the prosecution case Is in progress. First of all, what attracts attention is the handling of the case of professing convergence. Prosecutor Lee has been in conflict with the investigation team since December of last year over whether or not Han Dong-hoon, a research fellow at the Legal Affairs Training Institute (Prosecutor), has colluded with this case. The investigative team has expressed their intentions by posting a report stating that a prosecutor should be dismissed and a proposal for approval on the internal network, but it is known that the chief prosecutor is delaying the approval, saying,’The case can be terminated only when the result of the cell phone forensics of one prosecutor is presented. . It is said that Chief Prosecutor Lee expressed his intention to “replace leadership by replacing the staff line” before greeting, and there is a possibility that the first Detective Chief Byun Pil-gun, who had a conflict over this case, will be replaced. The suspicion of’taxi driver assault’ by Vice Minister of Justice Yong-gu Lee, a case under the first vacancy, is in progress. In November of last year when Vice Minister Lee was a lawyer, the central point of this case was that the police did not apply the aggravated punishment law for specific crimes and treated it as a simple assault, resulting in a controversy about “seeing”. The prosecution is speeding up the investigation by recovering the black box video containing the scene of the assault and summoning the police officer at the Seocho Police Station who was in charge of the case at the time. The investigation of allegations of involvement in political relations is not accelerating. The Economic Crimes Criminal Division (Director Joo Min-cheol), which investigates the Optimus case, recently completed an investigation of financial crimes, including arresting Prosecution of Minority Shareholder Yoon Amugae, Haeduk Powerway’s minority shareholder, for receiving money from Kim Jae-hyun, a key suspect. Whether or not these up and down political figures intervened has not been clearly identified. In relation to the Ulsan mayoral election intervention case, the 2nd Public Investigation Department (Director Sangdae Kwon), who is about to prosecute Lee Jin-seok, head of the Blue House State Affairs Office, has also not decided whether to prosecute the main suspects, such as Lee Gwang-cheol, civil affairs secretary. There are four cases in total, including the allegations of his wife Kim Gun-hee accepting money and goods in the name of sponsorship money and the Deutsche Motors stock price manipulation case. The mother-in-law Choi Ah Moo-gae, who was suspicious of the establishment of an illegal nursing hospital and irregular supply, was prosecuted last year, and the case of the alleged bribery Muma by former Yongsan tax office head Yoon Woo-jin, who has a close friend with Yun, is under account tracking and investigation of reference persons.
