It has been confirmed that police are considering further charges of inciting Yoon Suk Yeol's president to interfere with his arrest.

As a result of YTN coverage, the National Police Agency's National Investigation Headquarters Special Investigation Team is considering booking President Yoon on charges of obstructing the execution of special public affairs.

During the recent investigation of officials from the Security Service, the special police team confirmed that President Yoon ordered a hard-line response, such as having a luncheon with the head of the Security Service ahead of the execution of the second arrest warrant and securing a statement that Kim Sung-hoon, the deputy head of the Security Service, said he understood.

The special team also conducted a high-intensity investigation into former Chief of Security Park Jong-joon for more than 40 hours over three days, and secured a statement to the effect that the security agency was led by Deputy Chief Kim Sung-hoon who did not cooperate with the execution of the warrant and even fought because it was a security zone.

The police plan to continue the investigation, believing that President Yoon's specific instructions were behind the fact that Deputy Chief Kim, who was the second in the security service, played a leading role over the chief.

As a result, the police are expected to re-secure the head of the security service, including Deputy Chief Kim, whose warrant was rejected, and then begin a full-fledged investigation into President Yoon.
