[Reasons for Recognition] The entry of evidence Nos. 2 and 3 and the purport of the whole pleading
2. The parties' assertion
A. On November 28, 2017, the Plaintiff claimed perusal of the entire investigation records at the time of visit to the office of the competent branch office of Gwangju District Prosecutors' Office. However, the Defendant made a copy of the complaint, the statement of the complainant, the stenographic records, and made a disposition of denial of inspection and copying on the remaining records. Accordingly, the Plaintiff’s assertion sought revocation of the disposition of rejection.
B. Defendant’s assertion 1) The Defendant filed a request for the inspection and copying of only the complaint, the statement of accusation, the stenographic records, and the stenographic records, and thus there is no rejection disposition asserted by the Plaintiff. 2) Even if the Defendant rendered a non-permission disposition as alleged by the Plaintiff, the investigation records are recorded in the prosecutor’s investigation process, and thus, they constitute “information pertaining to the prevention, investigation, the institution and maintenance of a public prosecution, which, if disclosed, has considerable grounds for remarkably obstructing the performance of duties or infringing on Defendant’s right to a fair trial,” under Article 9(1)4 of the Official Information Disclosure Act.
