Choo Mi-ae: "Political prosecutors who discredited Roh Moo-hyun by fabricating evidence are now protecting Yoon Seok-yeol's wife investigation"
[Asia Economy Reporter Koo Chae-eun] Former Minister of Justice Choo Mi-ae criticized on the 23rd, "The political prosecutors who fabricated evidence and leaked it to the media to disgrace the late President Roh Moo-hyun are now hesitating to investigate Kim Gun-hee, the wife of Yoon Seok-yeol, who has become a leading presidential candidate, and are protecting her."
Former Minister Choo said, "The prosecution covered up the investigation after sharing a bowl of oxtail soup during the BBK special prosecutor's investigation, and at that time, Prosecutor Yoon Seok-yeol was part of the special prosecutor team." She added, "The prosecution has evolved into political prosecutors parasitizing on a powerful next political force. Even if that day comes slowly, I will fulfill the mission of prosecutorial reform."
On the day marking the 12th anniversary of the late President Roh Moo-hyun's passing, Former Minister Choo shared a passage from President Roh's autobiography "It Is Destiny" on Facebook, stating, "If the prosecution itself is politically biased, even if political independence is guaranteed, it will not maintain political neutrality."
