Joo Jin-woo, a member of the People's Power, criticized the impeachment review with only six constitutional judges, saying that controversy over due process is inevitable.
Joo, the chairman of the party's legal advisory committee, wrote on his SNS that the Constitutional Court Act clearly stipulates that "the case will be heard with the attendance of more than seven judges."
Lee Jin-sook, chairman of the Korea Communications Commission, said that the effect of the clause was due to the "constitutional petition," but the Constitutional Court yesterday explained that it was due to the "unconstitutional legal trial" and demanded that the exact legal basis be revealed.
He added that the unconstitutional legal trial can be interpreted as being applicable to all cases if the effect of the provision is suspended, but it is difficult to apply the constitutional petition because it is for the basic rights of individuals.
