The president's Christmas investigation has effectively failed, but the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is still reticent.

As we cannot wait for the president's voluntary attendance, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is also struggling.

Reporter Kim Chul-hee reports.

The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, which had been under pressure by Oh Dong-woon, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, directly mentioned the possibility of arrest, began to control the level when the president virtually expressed his intention not to attend.

As the date and time of notification has not yet arrived, we will wait for attendance with all possibilities open.

[Dongwoon Oh / Director of Criminal Investigation for High-ranking Officials: I repeatedly ask and want the president to give me precious time to attend the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit. (Request for an arrest warrant, etc.) It means that those policies have not been decided yet.

Since then, there are three major options that the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is considering.

You can notify the subpoena one more time, but you can also go straight into the arrest phase or claim a preliminary arrest warrant without an investigation.

In normal criminal cases, if the suspect refuses to comply with the summons twice, a forced investigation is often launched.

However, as the opponent is the incumbent president, the possibility of notifying the summons again in the near future cannot be ruled out.

The fact that the investigation records of major participants, including former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun, have not yet been fully handed over from the prosecution also adds to the possibility of requesting a third appearance.

However, given the opportunity, it is predicted that the president will not comply with the summons notification.
Some predict that the unprecedented "request for arrest warrants for the current president" could become a reality.
