The prosecution recognizes the right to investigate civil war...The main reason is the accomplice, the police.

Court Decides Prosecutors Can Investigate 'Emergency Security Case'

Based on the 'Article 4 of the Prosecutor's Office Act' prescribed by the prosecutor's duty

Prosecutors explain key 'police-related crimes' to court

Possibility of provoking the police...I don't think it's externally emphasized.

The court issued an arrest warrant for former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun, and determined that the prosecution could also investigate allegations of rebellion by those involved in the emergency martial law case.

The fact that the police were identified as accomplices in this case was the key basis, and reporter Lee Kyung-guk organized the details.

Along with the arrest decision, the court, which issued an arrest warrant for former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun, decided that the emergency martial law case was also included in the scope of the prosecution's investigation.

Article 4 of the Prosecutors' Office Act was explained by the court as the basis.

Specifically, I mentioned 'B' and 'C' in Article 4, Paragraph 1, No. 1.

First of all, 'mok' is that the prosecution can investigate the crimes of the police and public officials belonging to the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit.

'C' stipulates that prosecutors can also investigate crimes related to these crimes.

In the end, as police chief Jo Ji-ho, a police official, is accused of rebellion, the prosecution can investigate this part and investigate former minister Kim's alleged crimes.

The prosecution is known to have largely explained this as the basis for the investigative power claim, along with the logic that the court can investigate the crime of rebellion through abuse of authority.

However, it seems that the logic has not been emphasized externally, considering that it can stimulate the police.

The prosecution has lifted the shackles of controversy over investigative rights with the key to the police, who have continued to compete for leadership.

Analysts say that as much as the obstacles have been cleared, the investigation targeting Yoon Suk Yeol's president, who has the privilege of fluoridation, will be more powerful.
