The Emergency Security Joint Investigation Headquarters, set up by the police and high-ranking government officials' crime investigation office, attempted additional seizure and search of the president's office to secure server data related to Police Commissioner Jo Ji-ho's "security phone," but it failed.

The government said it sent investigators to the presidential office in Yongsan this morning (17th) to raid the presidential office's security office server, but withdrew after a nearly eight-hour standoff without the security office permitting them to enter.

He also said that the security service said it would let you know if it would cooperate with the seizure and search tomorrow (18th).

The special police investigation team previously confiscated the "security phone" of Police Commissioner Jo Ji-ho, who was confirmed to have spoken to President Yoon Suk Yeol six times with this phone at the time of martial law.

The special team also tried to execute a search warrant for the presidential office in Yongsan on the 11th, but received only some data in the form of voluntary submission at the time as the security service refused to enter the building.
