The Judiciary Committee held a plenary session and passed the "Special Investigation Act to Find Out the Facts of the Yoon Suk Yeol Government's Insurrection and Foreign Exchange Activities" proposed by six opposition parties.
The ruling party lawmakers expressed their opposition to the investigation due to the scope and target of the investigation and the supplementation of the special prosecutor, and all left just before the bill was voted on.
The revised independent counsel law called for the chief justice of the Supreme Court, a third party, to recommend candidates for special prosecution, not the ruling and opposition parties, excluding the so-called "vitual right," which allows the opposition to demand the candidate's re-recommendation.
However, the investigation included "foreign exchange crimes" to the effect that President Yoon Suk Yeol induced North Korea's provocations for martial law.
The Democratic Party plans to hold a plenary session as early as tomorrow or as late as the 16th to deal with the independent counsel law.
