The police and the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit said in the early morning of today (19th), "We have obtained an arrest warrant for President Yoon," and "We will proceed with the investigation in accordance with the law and procedures."
An official from the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit said that the court also mentioned that there were considerable reasons for suspected crimes, and that the timing of President Yoon's summons would be revealed at a briefing this morning.
On the other hand, President Yoon's lawyers said they expected good results after the warrant review, but they have remained silent after the arrest warrant was issued without announcing any particular position.
