Arrested pride, how is it going?

[Reporter]
President Yoon Suk Yeol's arrest suit is being held by Judge So Jun-seop from 5 p.m. today.

I was interested in whether President Yoon would come out in person until the last minute, but he did not attend for security reasons.

Instead, three people from the president's side, including lawyer Seok Dong-hyun, lawyer Kim Gye-ri, and lawyer Bae Jin-han, are present to express their opinions instead.

At the Senior Prosecutor Cha Jung-hyun and three others attended the Senior Prosecutor's Office.

Depending on the end of the interrogation, there is a possibility that a conclusion will be made as early as tonight.

What's the issue today?

[Reporter]
President Yoon's lawyer Seok Dong-hyun met with reporters before attending the arrest suit and raised the jurisdiction of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit and the Seoul Western District Court.

At the same time, he explained the reason why he requested the Central District Court, not the Seoul Western District Court, which issued the arrest warrant.

Let's listen to it for ourselves.

[Seok Dong-hyun / Yoon Suk Yeol President's lawyer: Arrest suit is where the suspect is currently arrested by the competent court. Because the court under the jurisdiction of the Seoul Detention Center is the Central District Court...]

{President Yoon's side has been in a position to send an arrest warrant and indictment to the Seoul Central District Court.

The request for an arrest suit to the Central District Court is also interpreted as a strategy to avoid the Seoul Western District Court, which issued two arrest warrants earlier.

Attention is focusing on what the court will decide.

So far, the Seoul Central District Court has informed you.
