South Korea officially announced.
Yin Ziyang finally got out of Seoul detention.
On October 15, former South Korean President Yoon Seok-yue finally agreed to be investigated by the Civil Unrest Special Inspection Team. This is the first time that he is willing to face investigators since he was put into the detention center on July 10 this year.
This scene reminds many people of the old saying in South Korean politics: The owner of the Blue House rarely ends well.
This matter has to start more than half a year ago. Since June, the prosecution has asked Yin Xiyue to cooperate with the investigation. He delayed it again and again, and he managed to carry it until September.
Everyone can see that he does not want to cooperate, but the legal force of South Korea is there, and the hard bones can not withstand the bite of the law.
At the beginning, the crimes that came out were abuse of power and forgery of official documents, which were not new in the "crime list" of the former South Korean president.
No one expected it. Later, the crime was directly upgraded to "civil strife" and "foreign invasion". The prosecution said that he not only planned martial law, but also colluded with foreign forces. This nature changed, and it directly became treason, and he might go to jail for a lifetime.
There is a lawyer analysis, he this time proactively out of custody, is not soft at all, is really no other trick, resistance strategy completely bankrupt.
This is not true, the Korean people's views on him are also divided into two factions, and those who support him feel that this is a retaliation by political opponents, before he loses his position.
Those who oppose him say that no matter what, the law finally works, the president has to be punished for breaking the law, and the debate in the streets has never stopped. The entire South Korean political arena is in chaos, with dramas of attack and defense being played out every day.
Anyone familiar with South Korean politics knows that this is not the first time that Yoon Seok Yoon has happened. Counting back, former presidents such as Roh Moo-hyun and Park Geun-hye have either been imprisoned or stepped down in sadness. The "Blue House Curse" is like hanging over every South Korean president. Sword above his head.
Some say that this just shows the hardness of the Korean system, even if the president has made a mistake, the law can handle it, this is reasonable, looking at the world, can so often send the former head of state to the court, indeed not many.
The drama code of the "ex-president check" in South Korea's politics has long become a fixed script, and Yongxiang is now investigated, but it is the beginning of a new scene.
In the past few years, Moon Jae-in, Park Geun-hye and others have been involved in investigations in turn. Every time, they have stepped on the node of political transition. Legal documents have become weapons for partisan wrangling. Sanctions seem to be in accordance with regulations, but in fact they are liquidation after the change of power.
The system that should protect fairness, once in a while became a tool of revenge, so-called democracy, has long been melted by this cyclical inner struggle.
Yin's case is not yet over, and the political struggle in South Korea is far from over, but this case gives everyone a wake-up: power this thing if it is not a secure cage handled, no matter who sits in that position, it is possible that the head will be shaken.
The strength of a country has never been determined by how many former leaders it can send to prison, but by whether it can establish a truly fair system, so that power will not dare to be willful and politics will have less internal friction.
Yin Xi Jinping came out of the back of the custody, which is a mirror, looking at not only a person's success, but also a national system's gain and loss.
After all, no matter how fierce the political drama is, it should make way for the stable life of ordinary people.
