Faced with an arrest warrant from the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, President Yoon Suk Yeol is accused of leading the emergency martial law situation and abuse of authority.

In particular, the public statement on December 12 last year, before the impeachment bill was passed, clearly proves President Yoon's charges.

"Pull out"

[Reporter]
President Yoon Suk Yeol claims that martial law on December 3rd was a warning to the public about the country's crisis and allowed entry to the National Assembly.

But key figures involved in the martial law implementation said they had consistently been told by the president to "pull it out."It is a testimony that President

Yoon called and mentioned the quorum of the decision, and even instructed four people to come out one by one.

" even by shooting"
Contrary to President Yoon's saying that he ordered not to be armed
, the instructions feature guns and axes.

In fact, the martial law vehicle deployed to the National Assembly contained live ammunition,
The arrest team that went to the
Election Commission brought a baseball bat and hammer, an awl and a gunboat rope.

"You can declare 2 or 3 times"
Even after the resolution to lift the
National Assembly, President Yoon did not give up his attempt to take control of the National Assembly, prosecutors believe.

At 1:03 a.m. on the 4th, after the lifting was approved, he continued to order arrest, saying, "Even if it is lifted, martial law can be declared twice or three times."

"Creating a separate emergency legislative body"

President Yoon is also accused of neutralizing the existing National Assembly and trying to establish a new legislature at all.

It was also revealed that he delivered a document to Choi Sang-mok, the then deputy prime minister, asking him to draw up a budget for the operation of the emergency martial law legislature.
