Presidential Security Department refuses to call for attendance today..."We're discussing the timing with the police."

Park Jong-joon, the head of the bodyguard, was asked to attend the police today on charges of obstructing the execution of an arrest warrant for President Yoon Suk Yeol, virtually refused, saying it was difficult to attend.

The Presidential Security Service issued a statement today saying that the head of the security service and the deputy head of the security service cannot be away for a moment due to the current strict time related to the presidential security service.

He added that he was consulting with the police to respond to the investigation at a later time.

An official from the security service explained that he was not simply refusing to attend the police, but was coordinating the schedule.

Earlier, the joint investigation team consisting of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit and the police demanded police attendance today (4th), claiming that there was an illegal obstruction of the security service during the execution of the warrant against President Yoon yesterday (3rd).
