The Joint Investigation Headquarters, which investigates the emergency martial law case, requested an arrest warrant for President Yoon Suk Yeol again yesterday (6th).
Oh Dong-woon, the head of the high-ranking government official's crime investigation department, stressed that he would be determined to be the last one if the warrant was issued.

Yesterday, the Joint Investigation Headquarters requested an arrest warrant for President Yoon again to extend the deadline, but the court's judgment has not yet been made, has it?
[Reporter]
Yes, it's been almost a day since the government re-requested the warrant, but the court's decision has not yet been made.
It is not yet known whether a judge on duty is hearing a warrant or a warrant-only court is hearing.
Considering the importance of the case, it is highly likely that the warrant-only court was in charge, and there are two senior judges, Lee Soon-hyung and Shin Han-mi, in the Western District Court's warrant-only court.
There is a possibility that Shin Han-mi, a senior judge, will be in charge of it, not Lee Soon-hyung, who issued the first arrest warrant to further ensure fairness.
If a warrant is issued, the Joint Investigation Headquarters is expected to speed up preparations for the execution of the second warrant.
President Yoon's side again gave the court an opinion that there was no need for arrest,
If the court accepts this and the warrant is rejected, great confusion will be inevitable.

When the warrant is issued, the government is going to start preparing right away, right?
[Reporter]
Yes, today, Oh Dong-woon, the head of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, appeared in the National Assembly Judiciary Committee's pending question.
If a re-claimed warrant is issued, he said he would execute the second warrant with the determination that it would be the last.
Let's listen to it for ourselves.
[Dongwoon Oh / Director of the Criminal Investigation Department of High-ranking Public Officials (Current Question by the National Assembly Judiciary Committee): We will do our best at the level of the Joint Investigation Headquarters to achieve the goal of the second execution by preparing thoroughly with the determination of executing the last warrant....]
An official from the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit also said that once the warrant is issued, they will start full-fledged working-level consultations with the police.
During the first execution on the 3rd, there was strong resistance from the security and military,
As security at Hannam-dong's official residence has become stricter since
, measures to increase manpower are expected to be actively considered.

Yesterday, the Dong-A Ilbo announced that it was difficult to confirm the validity of the warrant, announcing the request for an arrest warrant again.
What does it mean?
[Reporter]
Yes, yesterday, the publication announced that it was difficult to confirm the validity of the warrant by announcing the re-claim of the warrant.
Oh Dong-woon, head of the Airborne Division, also declined to comment today, saying it is inappropriate to disclose the expiration date at this time.
Earlier, when the first arrest warrant was issued on the 31st of last month, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit disclosed the expiration date.
Since then, the execution of the warrant has been blocked by strong opposition, and the rally continued in front of the Hannam-dong residence until yesterday, the last day of the expiration date.
In the end, not revealing the expiration date this time is interpreted as the "smuggling" of the second warrant execution, which means that it will further strengthen security.
So far, the airlift has delivered it to you.
