Comprehensive audit of the National Assembly Judiciary Committee attended by Justice Minister Chu Miae.
At the same spot on Thursday of last week, a refutation began on the remarks made by Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol.
"This is because of the independence and neutrality of the prosecution's investigation," said Mr. Chu, who said that he was not a subordinate of the Justice Minister.
[Kim Jin-ae / Member of the Open Democratic Party: The Minister of Justice is the superior of the Prosecutor General.]
[Chu Mi-ae / Minister of Justice: He is a superior, that’s right.] In
the words of those who are expected to be medium sentenced, it is unwise to deprive the President of the investigation and command of the president. I answered like this.
[Chu Mi-ae/Minister of Justice: Investigation command power is a definite, legitimate command to return abnormalities to normal.]
He also mentioned the move of President Yoon.
[Chu Mi-ae/Minister of Justice: If you are openly convinced that'investigation command is illegal', it is very contradictory and mistaken for the head of the prosecution to keep that place and say that.
]
As the former chairman Kim Bong-hyun claimed, Minister Chu said he confirmed that the prosecutor who was treated with alcohol has also become the leader of the Lime case investigation team.
In addition, he also indicated that he would inspect the Optimus case when he was the Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office.
In terms of the people's power, the testimony of Minister Chu and President Yoon's national supervision insisted that the case be confronted.
[Counselor Do-eup Kim/People's Power: I wish I could sit down with the Minister and President Seok-Yeol Yoon and have a great sense of the country.]
[Miae Choo/Minister of Justice: As a public official, it is polite.
It is not appropriate to talk about the conversation between the superior and the subordinate.]
However, in the last remarks of the National Assembly, Minister Chu requested for a personnel proposal from Yun during a high-ranking prosecutor's office earlier this year, but it was also revealed that Yoon refused because his person was revealed I did.
