Deputy Prosecutors and Chiefs of the Prosecutor's Office Middle executives below the level of prosecutors will be held on the 27th.

A large number of prosecutors from Honam, who are pro-government-oriented prosecutors from Honam, were excluded from senior officials at the prosecutor's level or higher on the 7th.

The Ministry of Justice held a Prosecutors' Personnel Committee at the government's Gwacheon Office for about 2 hours starting from 10 am on the 24th, and deliberated on promotion and transfer of high-level prosecutors.

The personnel announcement date is the 27th, and the appointment date is the 3rd of the following month.

The Ministry of Justice decided to retain the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office and some of the heads of the Judicial Research and Training Institute, which is the subject of promotion to the Deputy General Manager, in consideration of the investigation and trial of pending cases.

Positions such as vacant deputy general manager positions and newly established human rights inspectors are also being filled.

In the case of the Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office, 2nd Deputy General Lee Geun-soo (28th term) and 4th Deputy General Kim Wook-jun (28th term) are likely to remain in office, but the possibility of transferring to another office or moving to the first and third vice presidents within the same agency is also predicted.

As the first and third deputies were promoted to the prosecutor's office in the last senior executive's personnel, two seats remain vacant.

The Ministry of Justice has a policy of minimizing the targets and scope of personnel in consideration of whether or not the mandatory period (one year) is met for those who have been assigned to the Department of Prosecutors' Level 31 or less at the Judicial Research and Training Institute.


This time, the middle executive's personnel matched with the reorganization of the office, which had been in conflict between the Ministry of Justice and the prosecution.

While the Supreme Prosecutors' Office virtually opposed the reduction of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office, it is known that most of the middle officers of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office, who were less than a year old, applied for stay.

As the Ministry of Justice has professed, it is expected that prosecutors with extensive experience in the criminal and trial departments will receive major positions instead of special police officers.

The deputy general manager is promoted to the 29th to the 30th of the Judicial Research and Training Institute.

The Ministry of Justice emphasized that "the criminal and court prosecutors, who have been devoted to human rights protection and work directly related to public welfare, such as criminal and trial, will actively prefer and select excellent female prosecutors and certified professional prosecutors."

In order to strengthen the supervisory function of human rights violations in the investigation process of the front offices and to provide substantial support for victims, the Ministry of Justice has additionally assigned human rights inspectors to five district offices in the metropolitan area (Goyang, Bucheon, Seongnam, Ansan, Anyang). I did it.

We decided to minimize the size of the personnel of general prosecutors, and reflect the hopes of retaining personnel other than the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office.

The purpose of childbirth and child-raising is to expand and apply the long-term service system, and to consider conditions such as diseases, childbirth, and child-rearing.

The Ministry of Justice is planning to pass the amendment bill of the'Enforcement Decree of the Prosecutors' Office' and'Regulations on Office Organizations of the Prosecutors' Office' (above the Presidential Decree), which contains the abolition of the four-digit prosecutor's office at the Deputy Prosecutor's Office.

If this reorganization plan is passed and implemented, the anti-corruption investigation department (formerly special investigation department) and the public investigation department (formerly public security department), which have been the two main pillars of the prosecution's direct investigation, will be reduced, and the prosecution service system will be reorganized into the criminal department and the trial department.

The Supreme Prosecutors' Investigation Information Policy Officer, who served as the'eyes and ears' of the Prosecutor General, will be abolished, and the number of investigation information officers under its subsidiary will be reduced from two to one.

The Supreme Swordsman Public Investigation Policy Officer, the Scientific Investigation Planning Officer, and the Anti-Corruption and Power Department Senior Research Officer also disappear.

Instead, the'Human Rights Policy Officer' and the'Criminal Policy Officer' are newly established under the direct control of the Deputy Chief Prosecutor.

The total amount of direct prosecution investigations will be reduced.

The 14 direct investigation departments and dedicated investigation departments of major prosecutors' offices will be converted into the criminal department, and the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office will move the major departments under the 3rd deputy head in charge of the direct investigation under the 4th deputy head.

Depending on the results of the personnel of the middle officials, there is also a prospect that an internal protest or protest resignation will continue.

On the 7th, a high-ranking executive may post a line mark centering on the 26th to 28th judicial training institutes that were not promoted to prosecutors.

It is also noteworthy whether the Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office and other major investigation command lines have changed.

The positions of the 1st and 3rd Deputy Prosecutors of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, the 1st Deputy Head of the Seoul Southern District Prosecutors' Office, the Seoul Western District Prosecutors' Office, and the 1st Deputy Chief of the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office were also vacant as senior executives.
