"Re-claim to extend the deadline for the president's arrest warrant"

[Anchor]
The Joint Investigation Headquarters, which investigates emergency martial law, has re-claimed the warrant to extend the validity of the arrest warrant for President Yoon Suk Yeol.

I'll connect you with a reporter. Reporter Kim Tae-won, did you file a claim with the Western District Court again?

[Reporter]
Yes, the Joint Investigation Headquarters, which is joined by the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit and the police, said today (6th) that it has re-applied the warrant to the Seoul Western District Court to extend the deadline for the arrest warrant for President Yoon.

However, he added that it is difficult to confirm how many days the warrant was applied for,
Lee Jae-seung, deputy chief of the Airborne Division, told reporters earlier today that he would ask for "seven days or more" but would consult with the police, forewarning the application for an extension.

If the prosecutor determines that it is necessary to extend the validity of the arrest warrant for the suspect, the prosecutor must explain the reason and request the arrest warrant again to the court.

The validity period of the arrest warrant first issued against President Yoon on the 31st of last month is 7 days, which expires at 0:00 a.m. tomorrow,
As the government requested an extension of the
period, it is expected that the government will try to secure new recruits for President Yoon again in the near future.

The court will review the reason for the re-claim and decide whether to issue a warrant soon.
