Minister of Justice Choo Mi-ae said on the acceptance of the prosecution command by Prof. Yoon Seok-yeol on the 9th, "At the moment, the Minister of Justice has decided to evade the command of the prosecutor himself and allow the investigative team to investigate independently in order to restore the fairness of the investigation. "It matches the wind."

Minister Chu said, “Mansijitan” was distributed to reporters at 10 am on the day of the deadline.

"If the director realizes that the sentiment felt by the president at the time was not different from the sentiment felt by the investigative team at this time, then it is worth noting that the independence and impartiality of the investigation will not be undermined."

The Supreme Prosecutors' Office stated that it would accept the investigation command this morning, saying that "the prosecutor was forced to remove the job from the investigation command and was exempted by the head of the investigation team in 2013."

The Justice Department countered that the allegation that the Independent Investigation Headquarters was first proposed to the Supreme Prosecutor's Office and requested public disclosure is not true.

The Ministry of Justice said, “There was a request from the Supreme Prosecutors' Office to make the Seoul High Prosecutor's Office as the team leader, but the Ministry of Justice staff reviewed it, but it was not reported to the Minister. "There is no."
