prosecution, investigating the alleged illegal withdrawal of Kim Hak-ei, the former Vice Minister of Justice, confiscated and searched the Ministry of Justice and other places.
At the time, there was a public remark by Justice Minister Choo Mi-ae that there was no problem with the withdrawal measures, but the prosecution is in the mood for an investigation.

prosecution confiscated and searched Incheon Airport, where the Ministry of Justice and the Immigration and Immigration Offices under its subsidiary are located.
This is to check whether there was any illegality in the process of withdrawing the former vice-minister of Hak Kim, who was going abroad on the night of March 22, last year.
At that time, the results of illegal inquiries about the departure of former Vice Minister Kim were frequently reported to the outside, and he is trying to determine whether senior officials of the Ministry of Justice are responsible for this process.
Prosecutor Gyu-won Lee's house, who led the emergency withdrawal, and the office of the FTC were included in the search for seizure.
This prosecutor, who was not in a state of investigation at the time, proceeded with an emergency ban on departure with a document containing a fake case number, and the suspicion that the Supreme Prosecutors' Office executives helped this should be revealed.
Suwon District Prosecutors' Office, who was in charge of investigating the case under the direction of the Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol, moved in full swing after a week of dividends.
Justice Minister Choo Mi-ae argued that the withdrawal was justified, saying that the procedural violation of the ban on departure at the time was a secondary issue, but the investigation team did not care.
Another suspicion was raised against Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office Lee Seong-yoon.
Immediately after the ban on departure from the former vice-minister of Kim last year, the Anyang branch was under investigation.
Several times he asked his position on this suspicion, but the Chief Prosecutor did not respond.
