The court issued an arrest warrant for Kim Sung-hoon, deputy chief of the security service, amid the imminent re-execution of the arrest warrant for President Yoon.

As the heads of the metropolitan area's regional investigation team hold the third meeting, the police's preparation for the execution of the warrant against President Yoon seems to be nearing the end.

An arrest warrant has been issued for Kim Sung-hoon, deputy head of the security service?

[Reporter]
Yes, it is.

The Seoul Western District Court issued an arrest warrant for Kim Sung-hoon, deputy chief of the Presidential Security Service.

As a result, the police are likely to try to break down the bodyguard by securing Kim's whereabouts when executing the second arrest warrant for President Yoon.

The police have been stepping up pressure on hard-line leaders in the security office, which previously protested the execution of the first warrant.

I asked Kim Sung-hoon, deputy chief of the Presidential Security Service, to appear three times, but when all of them did not respond, I applied for an arrest warrant and issued it.

Likewise, the police are considering applying for an arrest warrant for Lee Kwang-woo, the head of the security headquarters, who refused to comply with the request for attendance three times.

Kim Shin, the head of the family department of the Security Service, also did not respond to the police's first summons notification to come out by 10 a.m. today to be investigated.

Police are expected to continue to press hardline leaders for smooth execution of warrants.

On the contrary, they are implementing a two-sided strategy for security officials, saying that they will be lenient if they cooperate with the execution of the warrant.

The confrontation between the security service and the police continues, and the three-way meeting between the police, the airborne service, and the security service was not very profitable?

[Reporter]
Yes, the police held a three-way meeting with the security and airlift for about 20 minutes from 8 a.m. today.

The police first proposed to avoid bloodshed, and the bodyguard reportedly agreed and accepted the purpose of avoiding conflict.

At today's meeting, we discussed ways to minimize conflicts when executing arrest warrants, but it was found that only the differences between the two sides were confirmed.

The security service said it would do its best to prevent physical conflict afterwards, but
He reiterated his previous position, saying that if he is forced to enter certain security districts, including the
official residence, it is considered illegal and that he will respond according to the principle of security.

The police's preparations for the execution of the warrant appear to be in the final stages?

[Reporter]
Yes, it is.

The police held the third meeting from 10 a.m. today with the heads of the metropolitan area's regional investigation team gathering.

The meeting, which lasted nearly an hour and a half, appears to have involved specific discussions for the execution of arrest warrants.

The police planned to mobilize the metropolitan area's wide-area investigation team to put more than a thousand people, including detectives, into the execution of arrest warrants.

In the previous meeting, it was also mentioned that we should prepare for a long-term war, which is interpreted as an operation to isolate the bodyguard for a long time along with the tactics.

It has been confirmed that the National Investigation Headquarters sent an official letter to the Metropolitan Police Agency on the 9th to send investigators on security and wide-area investigation functions from today.

In addition, it is reported that a call-up order was issued for police personnel from 4 p.m. today, and they are fully prepared.

As such, the execution of the second arrest warrant for President Yoon seems to be imminent.
