A Comparative Study on Lawmakers’ Bills for the Redesign of Investigation System

The recently discussed Redesign of Investigation System is being conducted in order to remove the obstacles of the prosecution’s infinite power to monopolize the power of investigation and prosecution. However, there are various perspectives in the methodology of how to reform it. The government, however, has drawn up a government consensus as a concrete measure of prosecution reform. Several Bills have been submitted to the National Assembly to reflect this consensus. These Bills largely meet the need for the Redesign of Investigation System, especially separation of investigation and prosecution. However, there is a high possibility that the method of installing the investigation agency that shows a big difference in the methodology will act as a variable. Nevertheless, since there is a consensus on the intention of the separation of the investigation - prosecution, there is enough room for adjustment. It is time for the National Assembly to finish the Discussion on the Redesign of Investigation System, even if there is opposition and resistance from the prosecutor.
