Preface 
 
Recently our society has changed much over the last decades in the criminal justice procedure, led by the so-called adjustment of the investigative power of prosecutor or police. Several new regulations that directly affect the basic rights of people have been newly implemented, such as adjusting the scope of direct investigations by the prosecutor and introducing the right to terminate investigations by the police. 
 
Even in this period of upheaval, the ideal of implementing an appropriate criminal justice procedure must be maintained, and no gap should be generated in protecting people's lives and property. Jipyong Criminal Detective Group thus published this book with a desire to summarize the practical experience accumulated over 20 years and minimize the gap in the protection of basic rights due to the rapid change of criminal justice procedures. 
 
Anyone can become a victim due to unavoidable circumstances and demand criminal punishment from the perpetrator or, conversely become a suspect and be investigated by the police or prosecutor. In this case, if one can draw up a specific plan for the criminal justice procedure in advance and respond in a timely manner, any discomfort or resentment in the investigation process may be considerably reduced. I hope that this book serves as a guide to anyone who needs help from a lawyer in the face of sudden criminal procedures.
