The Joint Investigation Headquarters is expected to re-execute an arrest warrant for President Yoon Suk Yeol as early as this week.
The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is expected to work with the police on last-minute preparations.
I'm connecting you with a field reporter, reporter Lee Kyung-guk!
There is an analysis that the re-execution of the arrest warrant is imminent, so please tell us the current atmosphere of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit.
[Reporter]
Yes, the reporters looked at the atmosphere of the airlift here from around 4:30 a.m.
The vehicle of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is also parked as it is, and no special movement has been made yet.
However, it seems clear that the re-execution of the arrest warrant is imminent.
The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit focused on discussing the execution plan with the police yesterday, which is a holiday.
In particular, we are also continuing to review the law on various situations that may occur.
In particular, the YTN report confirmed that the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is considering not only criminal punishment but also civil damages lawsuits and claims for reimbursement rights against the Presidential Security Service.
However, the plan is to make sure that employees of the security service are not punished even if they are accused of dereliction of their duties in defiance of the superior order to resist the execution of arrest warrants.

President Yoon is reiterating his previous position to seek an arrest warrant or hand it over to trial instead of arrest?
[Reporter]
Yes, President Yoon's lawyers visited the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit yesterday, issued a formal appointment, and held a brief meeting with the investigation team.
It was found that he conveyed his opinion to the investigation team to consider the suspect, that is, President Yoon's right to defend and national dignity.
Later, in a statement, he insisted that he should not insist on executing illegal or invalid arrest warrants and prevent accidents.
President Yoon has already made his position known in a statement, and continued to argue that if further investigation is needed, an arrest warrant should be sought or prosecuted at the Seoul Central District Court.
However, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit reiterated its willingness to execute the arrest warrant, saying that the validity of the arrest warrant does not disappear.
So far, the airlift has delivered it to you.
