Beopseoryeon Files Complaint Against Park Beom-gye at Corruption Investigation Office... "Leak of Suspect Information in Han Myeong-sook Case"
[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Daehyun] Park Beom-gye, Minister of Justice, has been reported to the High-ranking Officials' Crime Investigation Division (Gongsoocheo) on charges of leaking suspect information in the case of the 'former Prime Minister Han Myeong-sook's alleged false testimony under threat.'
On the morning of the 24th, the Rule of Law Restoration Action Solidarity (Beopse-ryeon) submitted a complaint to Gongsoocheo, stating, "Minister Park violated Article 14, Paragraph 3 of the Act on the Promotion of Electronic Criminal Justice Procedures and Article 126 of the Criminal Act regarding the disclosure of suspect information, so we request a thorough investigation and severe punishment."
On this day, Beopse-ryeon claimed, "Minister Park violated the law by leaking criminal justice information he learned through his official duties." A Beopse-ryeon official said, "On March 17, Minister Park exercised his investigative directive authority to 'hold a chief meeting to review the presence of charges and the possibility of prosecution' regarding the Supreme Prosecutors' Office's decision of no charges in the case of former Prime Minister Han's illegal political funds receipt and the coercion of false testimony by a prisoner," emphasizing, "In this process, he mentioned the suspect facts of the prisoner involved in the case."

Furthermore, regarding Minister Park's recent mention of an inspection into the suspicion of Prosecutor General Lee Seong-yoon's leak of an indictment, Beopse-ryeon called it "a very cunning political trick to divert public opinion from the removal of Prosecutor General Lee from his duties," warning, "If disciplinary action is attempted, we will immediately file a criminal complaint for abuse of authority."
