Two days after President Yoon Suk Yeol's arrest, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit demanded a second investigation this afternoon, but President Yoon said he would not respond.

In the midst of this, the court is expected to review the arrest case, which was requested by President Yoon, calling it an illegal arrest.

I'm connecting with the reporter. Reporter Kim Taewon!

President Yoon expressed his intention not to attend the afternoon investigation?

[Reporter]
Yes, President Yoon said he did not comply with the request for investigation by the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit scheduled for this afternoon.As President

Yoon is in poor health and he fully stated his position in the first investigation yesterday, there is nothing more to be investigated.

Initially, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit planned to conduct the investigation from 2 p.m. today at the request of President Yoon to postpone the investigation due to health problems.

However, as President Yoon expressed his intention not to attend at all, attention is also being paid to the direction of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit's response.

President Yoon refused to make a statement in yesterday's investigation, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit has prepared a 200-page questionnaire for this investigation, but it is difficult to secure meaningful statements as President Yoon exercised his right to remain silent.It was reported that President

Yoon did not even say that he would refuse to make a statement throughout the investigation yesterday.

In addition, after completing the investigation, he did not read the newspaper report, seal, or seal it,
The investigation into the
Airborne Division is illegal, but it seems to be an extension of the existing position that he attended the Airborne Division to prevent bloodshed.

In addition, it is interpreted as a strategy not to give the suspect an excuse to use as a basis for guilt, as the record that the suspect did not stamp or seal has no evidence effect.

However, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit believes that it is not unreasonable to prove the charges regardless of whether they make a statement or not, and there is a possibility that they will seek an arrest warrant as early as today.

The court will soon start a full-fledged review of the arrest suit filed by President Yoon?

[Reporter]
Yes, the Seoul Central District Court yesterday allocated the arrest suit filed by President Yoon to Judge So Jun-seop of the 32nd Criminal Chamber.

The court is expected to set an interrogation date today at the earliest and take over the records from the investigative agency to reconsider the legality of President Yoon's arrest.

Earlier, President Yoon filed an arrest suit immediately after the first investigation, claiming that the execution process of the arrest warrant issued by the Seoul Western District Court by the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit was illegal.

It is also noteworthy that the Seoul Central District Court requested an arrest suit, not the Seoul Western District Court, where the warrant was issued.

As the arrest warrant issued by the Western District Court, which is not under the jurisdiction of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, has continued to claim that it is invalid,
It is interpreted as a strategy to move the legal battlefield to the
Seoul Central District Court.

The court can release the suspect if it deems the arrest unfair or unnecessary, and if not, dismiss it without questioning.

The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit must request an arrest warrant within 48 hours from the time of arrest,
As the time from the time the
court takes over the record to make a decision is omitted from here, the arrest suit interrogation procedure has emerged as a variable.

So far, I'm Kim Tae-won of YTN at the High-ranking Public Officials Crime Bureau.
