[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] On the 19th, the People Power Party criticized Justice Minister Choo Mi-ae's exercise of investigative command authority regarding the Lime Asset Management lobbying suspicion case and the family-related case of Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol, stating, "The minister's investigative command authority, the last bastion to uncover the truth, is instead being abused to cover up the truth."

People Power Party spokesperson Bae Jun-young said in a verbal commentary that day, "It is no different from the Justice Minister personally leading a targeted investigation against the head of the prosecution," and added, "The public's wish to reveal every single person who committed a crime, regardless of rank, through a special prosecutor has been ruthlessly trampled."

Spokesperson Bae stated, "Although they mentioned a 'swift and thorough investigation,' the conclusion that the Central District Prosecutors' Office, already filled with their own people, will present is obvious," and said, "Today's behavior, which obscures the essence of the case with the testimony of criminals to cover up the truth and privatizes power to bring down Prosecutor General Yoon, who does not suit the regime's taste, will remain an indelible stain in the history of the rule of law in the Republic of Korea."

Spokesperson Bae added, "The People Power Party will not be discouraged and will surely push through a special prosecutor to uncover the substantial truth of the Limegate scandal."
