The police top command was arrested at the same time, how will the investigation proceed in the future?
[Reporter]
At around 10 p.m. last night, the court issued arrest warrants for Police Commissioner Jo Ji-ho and Seoul Metropolitan Police Commissioner Kim Bong-sik.
Considering that the two tore or removed the martial law-related command letter received from the president of Yoon Suk Yeol, they judged that there was a risk of destroying evidence.
The special police investigation team, which has secured the recruits of the top police command, is expected to continue further investigations into Commissioner Jo Ji-ho and Commissioner Kim Bong-sik today.
The two are accused of being importantly involved in the civil war, including blocking lawmakers from entering the National Assembly during martial law on the 3rd.
In addition, unlike testimony at the National Assembly, it was confirmed that he received instructions on emergency martial law from the president's house three hours before the martial law was issued.
At the time of
, President Yoon is said to have called the two to Anga through Park Jong-joon, a former police officer.
As Commissioner Cho stated in a police investigation that President Yoon Suk Yeol called six times at the time of the emergency martial law and ordered the lawmakers to be arrested, the police plan to focus on analyzing the seized security phone calls.
