I'll connect you to the site and find out. Reporter Youngsoo Kim!President

Yoon is not even accepting the second attendance request?

[Reporter]
The request for attendance was not delivered even when the first summons was notified by the Joint Investigation Headquarters earlier.

It's the same situation this time.

What was sent to the general secretary's office and the annex is unknown to the recipient,

The Presidential residence is identified as a refusal to receive, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit says.

He also explained that the electronic letters are unidentified.

It is unclear whether he will appear on the 25th because he has yet to appoint a lawyer,
The
Airborne Division is in an atmosphere to watch until the morning of the 25th and discuss the next steps.

The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, which is preparing for a summons investigation, is reviewing the records in preparation for President Yoon's attendance.

If President Yoon responds to the summons, the police with the Joint Investigation Headquarters will be dispatched to the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit
It is expected that the investigation will be conducted in a form that can even ask
questions.

It seems highly likely that President Yoon will not appear on the 25th, right?

[Reporter]
I think the possibility of that has increased.

Seok Dong-hyun, a lawyer for the President of Yoon Suk Yeol, met with reporters for the third time today.

At the meeting, President Yoon Suk Yeol said he believes that the impeachment proceedings at the Constitutional Court should come first.Attorney

stressed that the nature of the investigation is that there is no opportunity to make a statement unless asked, and that he thinks the main stage of public debate is the impeachment court.President

Yoon should talk about the background of declaring emergency martial law and the state of affairs, but the investigative agency is not appropriate.

At the same time, he explained that he thought the crime of rebellion could also be dealt with in the impeachment trial.

Let's also talk about the arrest team investigation.

Is there a reason why the prosecution is focusing on this arrest group?

[Reporter]
The Arrest Group is an organization suspected of operating to arrest key politicians during martial law.

As much as the purpose was to effectively neutralize the legislature,
It seems that the prosecution judges that the civil war was at the center of the civil war in
.

An official from the National Police Agency, who appeared at the National Assembly's Public Administration and Security Committee today, responded to the effect that he handed over the list as he believed it was support for the counterintelligence agent's arrest.

Director Woo Jong-soo claimed that when he was reported, the list of 10 people had already been transferred after officials from the National Police Agency reported it to the police chief,

The prosecution seems to believe that the suspicion has been substantially proven just by the fact that it has already been disclosed.

It seems that the investigation situation will have to be watched to see if Director Woo can be held accountable.
