The high-ranking government official's criminal investigation office notified Yoon Suk Yeol's president, who refused to comply with the first investigation after his arrest, again this morning.
If you refuse to investigate again this time, you will likely consider forced recruitment or door-to-door investigation.
There is a reporter on the scene.
Reporter Kim Chulhee!

Yes, it's a high-ranking government official's criminal investigation office.

How long did the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit ask President Yoon to come out?
[Reporter]
Yes, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit informed President Yoon to attend and investigate by 10 a.m. today.It is the second summons notice since President
Yoon was arrested.
Yesterday, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit notified the investigation by 2 p.m., but it was canceled because President Yoon did not respond.President
Yoon has never responded to an investigation since he was arrested on the 15th and questioned for 10 hours and 40 minutes.
He/she has indicated that he/she has no intention of responding to the request for further investigation, saying he/she has nothing more to say to the
Airborne Division.

If President Yoon continues to hold out, is there a card that the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit can choose?
[Reporter]
The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is most likely considering forcibly bringing President Yoon from the detention center and investigating him.
An official from the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit also explained that although there are no provisions under the Criminal Procedure Act, the Supreme Court's precedents exist.
In fact, there is a precedent that a suspect who has been detained after an arrest warrant has been issued can be recruited to the investigation room if he refuses to attend.
However, considering the current presidential status, the investigation team may visit the detention center and investigate President Yoon.
Even if the investigation takes place, President Yoon is likely to refuse to make a statement.
The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit plans to attempt an additional investigation this week and hand over the case to the prosecution as early as Friday.

Please also tell President Yoon's position.
[Reporter]
After his arrest, President Yoon protested, calling it a false warrant.
At the same time, he said he would not give up and correct his mistakes in future judicial proceedings,
It is expected that the court will request an arrest suit and argue whether the arrest was legal.
I fully understand how angry supporters are about the attack on the court, but I asked them to express their intentions in a peaceful way.
However, some point out that President Yoon, who has been dissatisfied with the judiciary's decision and focused only on gathering supporters, cannot escape the responsibility of the situation.
So far, I'm Kim Chul-hee from the High-ranking Public Officials Crime Bureau.
