Jung Chung-rae: "Complete Abolition of Prosecutors' Supplementary Investigation Rights Is the Answer"

Jung Chung-rae, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, has reiterated that the "complete abolition" of the prosecution's supplementary investigation rights is the correct path forward.

During the party's Supreme Council meeting at the National Assembly this morning (June 22), Jung stated, "The grand principle of prosecution reform is the complete separation of investigation and indictment."

Jung further remarked, "We must make it clear to the prosecution, which is constantly looking for ways to retain its investigative powers, that they should not even dream of having such authority."

Further details will be provided in the video.
