The National Assembly Judiciary Committee subcommittee, which is examining a bill to completely abolish the prosecution's investigative powers, took a break last night (19th) after a debate over the end.

Kim Hyung-doo, deputy head of the Court Administration Office, said the abolition of the prosecution's investigation authority was unconstitutional.

The bill review subcommittee of the National Assembly Legislation and Judiciary Committee convened on the second day took a break around 10:30 last night.



In the closed meeting, intensive review was conducted on Article 4 of the Prosecutor's Office Amendment Act, which excludes investigations from the scope of the prosecutor's duties.



Kim Hyung-doo, deputy head of the Court Administration Department, who attended the meeting, said, "The strong view is that the deprivation of the prosecutor's right to investigate is unconstitutional."



Deputy Director Kim also said, "The Constitutional Court also recognizes the prosecutor's right to investigate."



The meeting went awry without the People's Strength lawmakers making a decision about the slurred words of Democratic Party lawmaker Choi Kang-wook.

[Choi Kang-wook / Democratic Party Member: This kind of blatantly obstructing the proceedings and delaying the deliberation Attitude, I am very sorry about this...

.]



The People's Power said that he would not be able to attend today's scheduled meeting without a public apology from Rep. Choi.



As the Democratic Party decided to deal with the bill in April as the party argument, it is planned to present the bill at the plenary session of the Judiciary Committee within this week and pass it at the plenary session on the 28th.
