The high-ranking government official's criminal investigation office notified President Yoon to come out to the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit this afternoon (19th), but the president again expressed his intention not to attend.

An official from the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit said in a briefing that they notified President Yoon of his attendance at 2 p.m. today.

In response, Yoon's lawyer, Yoon Gap-geun, said, "There is nothing more to say at the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, and today's investigation is difficult."

On the president's position that "a false warrant has been issued," the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit stressed that the issuance of the warrant is based on the premise that the crime has been identified, and that it is deeply sorry for making a position to deny the rule of law without trying to follow the procedures set by the law.Regarding the arrest period of President

Yoon, he said, "We agreed to spend 20 days each with the prosecution, but we need to decide when to turn over the case based on the investigation."

He also added that yesterday (18th) near the Seoul Western District Court, he plans to strongly respond to protesters assaulting investigators of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit and damaging vehicles.
