Human Rights Commission "Priority of assembly is the order of reporting"...Will you move to the Wednesday protest?

The National Human Rights Commission of Korea judged that the opposition group that reported the rally at the same place as the Japanese military's "Japanese Military Sexual Slavery" Wednesday protest had priority over the rally.

The National Action to Abolish the Comfort Women Act, which has denied the damage to the Japanese Military Sexual Slavery, has submitted a report to hold a rally on the sidewalk in Susong-dong, Jongno-gu, where the statue of a girl of peace is located since February 2023, and police have set up order lines and managed rallies due to concerns about clashes with the Justice and Resistance Alliance, which has been protesting for a while.

However, the Human Rights Commission recommended that the opposition group should guarantee it, saying that they have priority for the assembly because they reported it first.

In particular, the Jongno Police Station said it interfered with the freedom of opposition groups to hold rallies by separating the venue.

In 2022, the Human Rights Commission recommended that protection measures be actively taken to ensure that demand demonstrations are not disturbed, making it difficult to avoid controversy over reversing the decision on its own.
