[Asia Economy Reporter Choi Seok-jin] Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol expressed strong dissatisfaction with the Ministry of Justice's disciplinary committee's decision on the 16th to impose a 'two-month suspension' on him and stated that he intends to contest the decision using legal means.



In a statement delivered through his special attorney Lee Wan-gyu on the morning of the same day, Prosecutor General Yoon said, "This illegal and unjust measure, which cited unlawful procedures and baseless reasons to oust a fixed-term Prosecutor General, has severely damaged the political neutrality, independence of the prosecution, and the rule of law," adding, "We will correct the wrongdoing according to the procedures prescribed by the Constitution and laws."
