Yoo Si-min: "President Lee has deceived the public about prosecutorial reform until now"

On the 22nd, writer Yoo Si-min criticized President Lee Jae-myung for clarifying his specific approach to separating investigation and prosecution to the public earlier, saying, "Up until now, he has deceived the public." At the time, President ,,, Lee said, " The original maximum goal of prosecutorial reform was to separate prosecutors responsible for investigations and those responsible for prosecution, that is, prosecutors, so that prosecutors who handle investigations cannot also have prosecutorial roles," ,,, "And the idea was to separate these and divide the Ministry of Justice into agencies responsible for investigations and prosecutions." Regarding this, writer Yoo said, "The prosecutorial reform the president envisioned was exactly what we had in mind—commonly the Democratic Party's position and the president's pledges . It was completely different from what we had discussed." Yoo continued, "I have never heard such a thing even once. Not even once. Not even once. Not only did President Lee never talk about such things, but no one who advocated for prosecutorial reform did," and pointed out, "The claim that the maximum point of prosecutorial reform was to split the prosecutors' office into two—one dedicated solely to indictment and the other solely to investigation—was incorrect." Yoo continued, "The president said something that was not true. And that was the president's true intention," he said, adding, "Because of that, I believe everything became clear." Yoo cited the government's legislative notice for prosecutorial reform released after the government was passed last September, saying, "Until now   , All these legislative notices reflected the president's will," and argued, "Although the terms investigation, indictment, and prosecutorial reform were used together, the content was different." He continued, "The president should have said it earlier. Until now, he had deceived the people ," and said, "Was I just making up my mind? No, I didn't! I was shocked when I heard the president say that at the press conference."  This is not a reform to prevent prosecutors from also taking on the role of prosecutors, but rather to split the prosecution into two branches, one dedicated solely to indictment and the other solely to investigations?????????
