Lawyer Seok Dong-hyun, who is participating in the formation of Yoon Suk Yeol's presidential lawyers, met with reporters one after another on the 19th.
They conducted separate questions and answers not only with the domestic media but also with the foreign media, and showed a positive attitude by allowing filming, unlike what they had said behind closed doors.
And lawyer Seok emphasized that the announcement of this position was coordinated with President Yoon.
[Lawyers for Seok Dong-hyun / Legal Consultation for President Yoon Suk Yeol (last 19th): We are fully communicating with the President to the extent necessary with the intention that minimum communication is necessary. I'll tell you that I even saw your face.]Lawyer Seok explains that
Yoon is staying at his official residence and making various preparations and plans.
President Yoon has not received the impeachment trial documents sent by the Constitutional Court as well as the request for attendance by the investigative agency.
In the meantime, the announcement of the position to the media by using an agent is interpreted as a way to dilute public opinion that "declaration of emergency martial law" is an act of rebellion and to gather supporters.
[Lawyer Seok Dong-hyun / Legal Consultation for President Yoon Suk Yeol (last 19th): (President Yoon) is thinking, "Where is a civil war that is forewarned, where is a civil war that is quit?" From the president's point of view, it was a catastrophic emergency....]
In fact, lawyer Seok said that public opinion was distorted due to various rumors during the impeachment of former President Park Geun Hye, suggesting that he would actively engage in a public opinion campaign.
Investigative agencies are expressing confidence in proving that the declaration of martial law was a riot and civil war for the purpose of national constitution.The Joint Investigation Headquarters, which sent a second request for attendance to President
Yoon, emphasizes that preparations for the investigation have already been completed since the first notification of the summons.
It has been judged that it is possible to prove the charges sufficiently through statements and evidence secured by the police and the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit.
The prosecution, which handed over President Yoon's case to the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, is also continuing its high-intensity investigation, saying it will reveal the full extent of the emergency martial law incident.
In particular, the prosecution is increasing the level of pressure toward President Yoon by focusing its investigative power on the "pre-mocking suspicion" and the "alleged use of a major personnel arrest team," which will be a watershed in proving the charges of rebellion.
