[Asia Economy Reporter Han Seung-gon] On the 14th, Minister of Justice Chu Mi-ae denied allegations that her aide from her parliamentary office called the military unit during the extension process of her son's military sick leave, stating, "I did not order the call."



During the National Assembly's government questioning session that day, in response to a question from Yoon Jae-ok of the People Power Party, Minister Chu said, "I am not in a position to comment on whether the aide actually made the call or what motive was behind it." She added, "Since I am the accused, all I can do is wait for the prosecution's investigation," refraining from further remarks.
