President Yoon Suk Yeol's interrogation of the suspect before his arrest took place at 2 p.m. yesterday and ended at 6:50 p.m., four hours and 50 minutes later.

It's been eight hours since the interrogation.

According to the Supreme Court rules, the decision on whether to issue an arrest warrant must be made without delay from the time the interrogation of the suspect is terminated.

Therefore, the results are expected to come out as early as this morning.

The lawyers of President Yoon explained the reasons for the arrest for about 70 minutes by prosecutors from the Criminal Investigation Office of high-ranking government officials,

What is the reaction of both sides after the warrant review?

[Reporter]
Both the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit and President Yoon staged a fierce court battle for more than four hours.

Prior to the interrogation, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit submitted to the court a 150-page arrest warrant request and an investigation record containing data from the prosecution and police.

After the warrant review was over, he announced that he would hold a briefing at 10 a.m. today, but he seems to be confident of issuing an arrest warrant.

On the other hand, Yoon Gap-geun, a lawyer for President Yoon, met with reporters after the interrogation and said that the president himself faithfully explained the facts and evidence.
