Court Administration Minister Chun Dae-yup and Acting Justice Minister Kim Seok-woo expressed reservations about whether they could charge participants in the violent occupation of the Seoul Western District Court with rebellion.

Asked today if the act of breaking into the court constitutes a crime of rebellion in the National Assembly Judiciary Committee, Minister Cheon said it was an illegal violence that could be seen as coercion, but it is difficult to definitively mention it because it is a matter to be judged after a strict investigation.

In addition, acting Kim also responded that it is a serious issue that undermines the basis of the rule of law and the judicial system, and that additional legal review should be conducted on the possibility of establishing a rebellion.
