[사회]Mi-ae Chu, voice of death… the role of prosecution reform? Take Yoon Seok-yeol? Mixed evaluation

[앵커]

Justice Minister Choo Mi-ae, who expressed his appreciation along with the request for disciplinary action by President Yoon Seok-yeol, is expected to serve until a successor is decided.

While there are some criticisms that he played a role in reforming the prosecution during his tenure for nearly a year, there are also quite a few criticisms that the government’s burden was raised by ‘printing out President Yoon Seok-yeol’.

Reporter Jeon Jun-hyung reports.

[추미애 / 법무부 장관 : 검찰개혁의 성공적 완수를 위해서는 검찰의 안과 밖에서 개혁을 향한 결단과 호응이 병행되는 줄탁동시가 이뤄져야 할 것입니다.]

In his inauguration speech, he was Minister Chu Mi-ae, who emphasized the voluntary participation of the prosecutors in reform, but from the first prosecutor’s greetings, he changed the staff of the great swordsman to herald the war with President Yoon Seok-yeol.

He tried to remove the so-called special pain prosecutors from his key positions, but the criticism of the prosecution line was criticized and the sound of rupture with President Yoon continued.

[정점식 / 자유한국당 의원 : (검찰총장 의견을) 전혀 듣지도 않은 채 인사를 강행했습니다. 검찰청법 34조를 위반한 인사라는 거죠.]

[추미애 / 법무부 장관 : 제가 위반한 것이 아니고요. 검찰총장이 저의 명을 거역한 것입니다.]

Minister Chu has always been at the center of the issue as he invoked the minister’s power to command the investigation several times, which had been the only time in the history of the constitution.

However, the suspicion of’sword-on-union’, which triggered the first command, was not confirmed, and it faced headwinds due to unreasonable investigations such as’swordsman’s armed forces battle’.

However, Minister Chu ordered a sweeping inspection of the prosecution’s special activity expenses and the Lime and Optimus investigations, and eventually accepted the result of the unprecedented discipline of the incumbent president.

[추미애 / 법무부 장관 : 오늘 저는 매우 무거운 심정으로 검찰총장에 대한 징계 청구 및 직무배제 조치를 국민께 보고드리지 않을 수가 없게 되었습니다.]

Meanwhile, the launch of a high-ranking public officials investigation office to check the power of the prosecutors’ office has become visible, and a law to adjust the power of investigation to reduce the prosecution’s direct investigation is also ahead of enforcement.

This is in line with the emphasis that Minister Chu emphasized that the prosecution should be separated from the prosecutor’s office throughout his tenure and be reborn as an agency dedicated to prosecution.

[추미애 / 법무부 장관 : (검찰은) 범죄자를 소추하는 공소기관으로 확고히 자리매김하고, 수사권이 남용되거나 인권침해가 발생하지 않도록…]

Some say that he played a role in reforming the prosecution for such a move, but criticism that it raised the burden of the government while creating a confrontation phase is also not easy.

It is also the reason why there are voices that the two must resign together early even in the passport as Yoon emerged as a strong opposition presidential candidate after colliding with Minister Chu.

Minister Chu took a vacation after his speech, but it is expected that he will continue to work for the time being until the outline of his successor is revealed.

Inside the prosecution, Minister Chu Mi-ae has been summed up by saying that a politician covered the prosecution.

Whether it was a reform to disperse excessive prosecution power, or whether it was merely a print of President Yoon, burdened by the passport, the opinions of public opinion are sharply mixed depending on the political orientation.
