Earlier, President Yoon strongly opposed the court's decision to issue an arrest warrant, right?
[Reporter]
President Yoon issued a statement and protested that it was a sham warrant that made it difficult to say, "I respect the judgment of the judiciary."
He argued that there was no reason to arrest the president and that a ridiculous arrest warrant was issued even though the reason for his release was overflowing with garages.
He then refuted the court's reason for issuing the warrant, saying that there is no evidence to be eliminated and that it is not in a position to exert influence on suspension of duty, and that about 10 officials have already been arrested and charged.President
Yoon raised the level of criticism against the judiciary, saying that the rule of law has died and the conscience of law has disappeared, but said he would not give up and correct his mistakes in future judicial proceedings.
[Anchor]
The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit immediately started to refute the resistance from the lawyers?
[Reporter]
Yes, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit expressed strong regret, saying that President Yoon's lawyers issued a statement to deny the rule of law.
In particular, he said he was issued an arrest warrant in accordance with due process, and pointed out that if it is not acceptable, it will be done according to the appeals or relief procedures set by the judicial system.
An official from the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit also stressed that the issuance of an arrest warrant is a prerequisite that the crime has been clarified.
