Kim Jin-guk, a former senior presidential secretary for civil affairs, who was controversial for writing “My father is the senior civil affairs officer,” while submitting an application to the company as a suspect, the police who investigated the son as a suspect The case was closed after seeing that it did not.
The anti-corruption and public crime investigation team of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency has decided not to hand over to the prosecution the son of former chief Kim, who was accused of obstructing the recruitment of companies by a civic group.
As a result of the police investigation, it was confirmed that his son, Kim, had written a self-introduction letter to dozens of companies that posted job advertisements in December last year, saying, “My father is the chief of civil affairs at the Blue House.”
In response, the police judged that there is room to be regarded as an exercise of power, that is, pressure by social, economic, or political status or authority.
In addition, I thought that Kim’s false academic background, career, and military service records that are different from the truth may also be misleading and fall under the hierarchy of obstruction of business.
However, the police did not find that Mr. Kim or the former chief Kim had any power over the hiring managers of the companies except for submitting the job application form, and as a result of investigating the company managers, they concluded that the contents of the cover letter did not affect whether or not they were hired.
In fact, given that Kim was not hired by the company that submitted such a resume, he said it was difficult to send Mr. Kim to the charge of obstruction of business.
The police also concluded that it is difficult to believe that Kim’s act of submitting a false resume also caused a risk of interfering with the hiring process, as there is no evidence that it affected the hiring process.
In this regard, the Judicial Examination Preparation Student Association, the accuser, filed an objection, saying, “The fact that there was false information in the application and that my father was the chief of civil affairs, submitted the actual application and the companies reviewed it, but it is against common sense to judge that a crime does not exist.” I paid.
Previously, MBC reported that in December of last year, Kim Jin-guk’s son, Kim Jin-guk, senior civil affairs officer, applied for a job at various companies and wrote, “My father is Kim Jin-guk, senior civil affairs officer, so I will tell my father to make his corporate dream come true.” It was reported that he had falsely stated his academic background as a graduate.
