The Fire Special Judicial Police Best Practice Presentation Contest is held to share outstanding cases where obstacles encountered during investigations were overcome, as well as cases in which special judicial police officers demonstrated their professional expertise to successfully complete investigations and submit cases for prosecution.

Bae Sang-hyun, who represented Seongsan Fire Station at the Changwon Fire Headquarters’ internal contest on September 18, earned first place by presenting a case in which he actively exercised special judicial police authority to investigate an assault on an EMT (an offense under the Act on 119 Rescue and Emergency Activities), thereby taking a strong stance against acts that obstruct emergency services.

Upon winning first place in this competition, Fire Sergeant Bae Sang-hyun expressed, "I am delighted that my proactive investigative efforts for my colleagues led to such a positive outcome," and added, "I will continue to do my utmost to ensure my colleagues’ safety in the future."

Chief Jang Chang-moon stated, "I sincerely congratulate you on achieving excellent results by making use of your field experience and expertise," and continued, "I hope your diligent preparations will yield equally good results at the national competition."
