On the 3rd, the prosecution transferred the suspected case of Kim Hak’s illegal departure from the former vice minister of the Ministry of Justice to the criminal investigation office for high-ranking officials. Inside and outside the prosecution, there is a high possibility that the case will be re-transferred to the prosecutors’ office because the airborne agency has not yet been established, but Kim Jin-wook indicated that there is a possibility of a direct investigation on the day.
According to the legal profession, the Suwon District Prosecutor’s Office investigating the case of former Vice Minister Kim transferred the case to the Airborne Department on this day. The current Suwon District Prosecutor’s Office is examining whether Seoul Central District Prosecutor General Lee Seong-yoon exerted external pressure when he served as the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office of Anti-Corruption Forces in 2019 to prevent investigation of the case related to the ban on departure from former Vice Minister Kim. The transfer is based on the provisions of Article 25, Paragraph 2 of the Airlifting Service Act,’If an investigative agency other than the Airlifting Service finds a suspicion of prosecution, the case will be transferred to the Airlifting Service.’
Inside and outside the prosecution, it is believed that there is a high possibility that the airborne ministry will re-transfer the case to the prosecution, as there is a lot of time left for it to become a complete investigation, since the airborne ministry has not yet convened the personnel committee of the airborne ministry.
However, on the way to work, Kim Jin-wook met with reporters on the way to work and mentioned the possibility of a direct investigation, saying, “There is no situation in which the department of airlift is not very capable of investigating because the deputy and deputy heads are legal and there are 10 dispatched investigators.” In addition, he said, “I will deal with the case with common sense so that there is no criticism that such a criticism of doing nothing will arise” when asked,’Would the prosecution be immediately re-transferred to the case or whether the air defense agency would directly investigate it?’
Meanwhile, Deputy Commissioner Kim said that in addition to the spouse in this case, a separate notification of the high-ranking officials’ crimes has been received from the prosecutors’ office. He said, “The prosecution is receiving notification of the case of a high-ranking public official,” he said. “Although the selection of prosecutors for the airlift has not been completed yet, the airlift is reviewing this notification and is actually working.”
