On the 12th, the Democratic Party also decided to deprive the prosecution of the remaining six major crimes (corruption, economy, public officials, elections, defense business crimes, and major catastrophes). The follow-up measures will be discussed with the Yun Seok-yeol government.
The Democratic Party announced the adoption of the party argument and the legislative direction of the “completely deprived of the prosecution’s investigative powers” with this content through the policy assembly meeting on the same day.
The bill that aims to be dealt with in the extraordinary National Assembly in April is an amendment to the Prosecutor’s Office Act and the Criminal Procedure Act, which hand over all investigative powers to the police and leave only the prosecution’s right to prosecute. Last year, after the prosecutors and prosecutors adjusted their investigative powers, the prosecutors’ authority to investigate the six major crimes was also transferred to the police, leaving only the investigative powers to the police for mutual checks. The plan is to propose a draft in the name of the Democratic Party floor leader Park Hong-geun if Rep. Park Ju-min, who is a secretary of the Democratic Party of the National Assembly Legislation and Judiciary Committee, prepares a draft.
Rep. Park, who presented a plan to advance the prosecution at the National Assembly on the same day, met with reporters and said, “I transferred the authority to investigate the six major crimes and left the part that could investigate the police so that the police check by the prosecution continued.” The crime investigation department) checks the police and prosecutors, the prosecution checks the airborne police and the police, and the police checks the airlift and the prosecution.” He continued, “(Through this), the abuse of investigative authority pointed out in the past was prevented by mutual checks between the authorities.”

The enforcement period of the law has been deferred for three months. This is because the police need time to reorganize the organization to improve investigative power as the police are also in charge of investigating the six major crimes, and the Yoon Seok-yeol government and the National Assembly need time to come up with institutional supplementary measures.
Rep. Park said, “First, we will pass a bill to separate the prosecution’s investigative powers (during a grace period of three months) and discuss with the People’s Power government a plan to control the police and reorganize the prosecution.” ‘ as an alternative.
“We will launch a Korean-style FBI to take charge of serious crime investigations,” said Jin Seong-joon, senior deputy floor representative for the floor.
The Democratic Party pointed to the Judicial System Reform Task Force (TF) proposed by Kwon Seong-dong, floor leader of the People’s Power, as the channel to discuss alternatives with the Yun Seok-yeol administration. Rep. Park said, “If (the bill) goes into effect three months later, the Yoon Seok-yeol administration will be responsible for the various measures that will follow, such as police reform, since the Yoon Seok-yeol administration was inaugurated. He predicted that he would do well in the TF proposed by Mr.
However, the grace period may change during the legislative process. This is because it may take some time for the police to have the capacity to handle up to six major crimes.
Rep. Park said, “When the police confirmed how long it would take for the police to investigate the six major crimes without any connection with the prosecution, I heard informally that three months would be enough.” I need to do it,” he said.
