Jeonnam Fire Department Conducts Training to Enhance Investigation Skills of Special Fire Judicial Police

The Jeonnam Fire Headquarters (Chief Hong Young-geun) announced on the 19th that it conducted job training to enhance the investigative capabilities of the special fire judicial police.

The training, held on the 17th at the Jeonnam Fire School auditorium, was attended by 49 special fire judicial police officers from 22 fire stations across the province.

Starting with a special lecture by Park Won-guk, Head of the Response and Prevention Division, an instructor from the Jeonnam Provincial Police Agency was invited to provide practical training focused on understanding laws, step-by-step investigation procedures, and techniques.

Additionally, the session offered opportunities for participants to share opinions through Q&A and case sharing, with a particular focus on discussing investigative techniques related to crimes that obstruct fire activities, such as assaults on paramedics.

The special fire judicial police are responsible for investigating violations of six fire-related laws, including the Fire Services Act, and 159 officers are appointed across the Fire Headquarters and fire stations.

They secure evidence of criminal facts against violators of fire laws and handle tasks such as suspect interrogation and case referral.

As of November this year, Jeonnam Fire confirmed 36 violations of fire laws and referred 56 individuals.

Park Won-guk, Head of the Response and Prevention Division, said, "I hope this special training has been very helpful in enhancing the capabilities of those responsible for fire judicial duties."
