”December 3rd Emergency Martial Law” Investigative Cooperation Headquarters launched... ”Ending overlapping investigations”

The High-Ranking Public Officials Crime Investigation Agency (hereinafter referred to as the NISA), the National Police Agency's National Investigation Headquarters (hereinafter referred to as the NISA), and the Ministry of National Defense's Investigation Headquarters (hereinafter referred to as the NISA) have established a Joint Investigation Headquarters (hereinafter referred to as the NISA) for the investigation into the "December 3 Emergency Martial Law Situation" (hereinafter referred to as the "12.3 Emergency Martial Law Situation").
The two sides decided to set up a joint legal assistance headquarters (JLA) in response to the investigations. This is being interpreted as a measure to resolve the issue of “duplicate investigations” that has arisen during this period. However, the dispute with the prosecution over the investigations is expected to continue.
According to the Public Prosecutors Office on the 11th, the Mutual Aid Headquarters plans to use the expertise of each agency to carry out the investigation. By combining the investigative experience and capabilities of the National Investigation Headquarters, the Public Prosecutors Office's legal expertise and right to request warrants, and the military expertise of the National Investigation Headquarters,
The plan is for the investigative agencies to cooperate with each other in an organic manner. Until now, each investigative agency has been engaged in a fierce battle for leadership in the investigation of the “state of emergency.” The prosecution was the first to appoint the investigating prosecutor, the military prosecutor, and the investigating officer.
A special investigation headquarters of about 60 people was set up, and the police also responded with a special investigation team of about 150 people. On the 8th, the Public Prosecutor's Office requested the prosecutors and police to transfer the case, while stating that each agency should decide on its own investigation methods.
In particular, last night, the court issued an arrest warrant for former Minister of National Defense Kim Yong-hyun and decided that the prosecution could directly investigate the matter.
In this situation, the investigative agencies other than the prosecution have formed a mutual assistance headquarters to resolve the confusion and inefficiency caused by overlapping investigations.
A public prosecutor's office said, "We will investigate this incident promptly and thoroughly, regardless of rank, so that no suspicions remain in relation to this incident."
Details such as the number of people to be deployed will be announced at a later date.
