Is there any indication that the president is about to appear?
[Reporter]
Yes, the security vehicle has entered the main gate, but it still seems to be a routine movement.About an hour before
, a vehicle carrying President Yoon's lawyers left the main gate of the Seoul Detention Center.
Around the same time, President Yoon expressed his position that he would attend the interrogation of the suspect before the president's arrest.President
Yoon has been staying in the suspect's waiting room in the Seoul Detention Center for four days today.
It is known that there are partition toilets, televisions, and bedding in a solitary cell of about six to seven pyeong.
The president will leave the detention center for the first time since his imprisonment due to his attendance in the warrant examination, and if he rides with a prison guard in the Ministry of Justice's convoy, a security vehicle is expected to follow and escort him.
After the interrogation, President Yoon will return to the Seoul Detention Center here and wait for the results of the screening that will be released as early as tonight.
If an arrest warrant is issued, President Yoon should move to Suyong-dong and wear a khaki prison uniform with a prison number written on it instead of plain clothes.
In light of the previous cases of former Presidents Park Geun-hye and Lee Myung-bak, they are expected to be held in solitary confinement.
Conversely, if the warrant is rejected, President Yoon will be immediately released and returned to his official residence in Hannam-dong for investigation without detention.

The experience of the task force has also been deployed as dozens of supporters are now flocking to the detention center and chanting for the president.
After the anti-impeachment rally in Gwanghwamun in the early afternoon, crowds are expected to cross this way, making the scene more noisy.
In particular, more supporters are expected to flock from 2 p.m. to late at night when the arrest examination is scheduled.
In front of the arrested president's residence, anti-impeachment rallies continue day after day.
The participants are waving Korean and American flags and calling for President Yoon's release, saying both the impeachment and arrest are invalid.
Yesterday, pro-impeachment groups also protested right next to each other and confronted the opposition.
For the time being, daily rallies have been reported in front of the detention center, with 5,600 opponents of impeachment and 400 pro-impeachment.
Accordingly, the police are also preparing for possible situations by separating the assembly spaces of both sides and putting their careers into maintaining order.
