Police plan to arrest Deputy Chief Kim Sung-hoon, "acting for duty"...Kim Shin was summoned on the 14th.

The police reportedly requested an arrest warrant for Kim Sung-hoon, the deputy chief of the security service, who did not respond to all three requests for attendance.

The police are also increasing the pressure on the command of the security office by notifying Kim Shin, the head of the family department of the security office, of attending as a suspect.

Yes, this is the National Investigation Headquarters of the National Police Agency.

The police have established a policy to secure the whereabouts of Deputy Chief Kim Sung-hoon, the acting chief of security, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, the police reportedly requested an arrest warrant when Kim Sung-hoon, the deputy head of the security service, did not appear despite three summonses.

Deputy Chief Kim refused to attend, saying he could not leave for a moment as acting head of security at a critical time.
Kim, who became the head of the security service when former Chief Park Jong-joon resigned from his post, is classified as a hardliner in the organization, unlike former Chief Park, who was a former police officer.As Deputy Chief Kim Sung-hoon is known to lead the arrest of President

Yoon, if the police secure Deputy Chief Kim's whereabouts, the defense front of the official residence could also be cracked.

If an arrest warrant is issued, there is a possibility that the execution of the warrant against Deputy Chief Kim may be attempted first during the second arrest attempt against President Yoon.

It seems difficult for the security service to prevent the arrest of Deputy Chief Kim as the security targets of the security service are limited to the president and his family.

The police also notified the head of the security service of a subpoena?

[Reporter]
Yes, the Joint Investigation Headquarters said today (12th) that it has notified the family head of the Kim Shin Security Agency to summon him as a suspect by 10 a.m. on the 14th.

He also added that the mobile phone of Park Jong-joon, the former chief of security, was confiscated and analyzed in the form of a voluntary submission after being investigated for two days.

The police also notified Lee Kwang-woo, the head of the bodyguard division, who is classified as another hardliner, of the third summons.

If he does not appear by 10 a.m. tomorrow, the deadline for attendance, he is also expected to consider an arrest warrant for Director Lee.


Yoon concentrates on shaking the command of the security office before re-executing the arrest warrant.

As some of the command responded to the police investigation and even submitted their own mobile phones, there are observations that cracks are also occurring inside the security office.

So far, I'm YTN Lim Ye-jin from the National Police Agency's National Investigation Headquarters.
