President Yoon Suk Yeol, who is accused of a rebellion, has never attended the relevant proceedings in person so far.

Following the investigation and impeachment hearings, it is not expected to appear in the warrant review.

Reporter Woo Chul-hee reports.

[Reporter]
President Yoon Suk Yeol has never appeared directly to an investigative agency or court since the investigation began on charges of causing a civil war.

An arrest warrant was issued on December 18, 25 and 29 last year after failing to comply with the summons of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit three times,

The only day of his arrest, he was sent to the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit on the 15th for investigation, but he refused to make a statement as well as to read and seal the record.

From the next day, he did not respond to the investigation again, saying that the illegality was not resolved.

The investigation by the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is illegal and the warrant should be reviewed by the Seoul Central District Court, not the Western District Court,
The warrant review to determine whether to be arrested
is also expected to be absent for the same reason.

[Seok Dong-hyun / Attorney for President Yoon Suk Yeol (last 15th): He is asking the Seoul Central District Court to request an arrest warrant. If such a procedure is in place, I think the president will exercise the rights allowed in the procedure.]

However, only lawyers came out of the arrest suit filed directly with the Central District Court, saying that the arrest warrant was illegal.President Yun has repeatedly stated that the impeachment trial takes precedence over the investigation,

He did not attend the opening arguments of the impeachment trial at the
Constitutional Court.

This is why I'm concerned about my personal safety, and because of this, the first argument ended in four minutes.
