Reporter Yo Jong-hyun, please tell us about the police investigation on the riot at the Western District Court.

It included 46 people who broke into the court and 10 people who crossed the wall.

The police have set a policy to respond hard, such as arresting and investigating all of them in connection with the court riot.

As such, we are also considering whether to apply for a warrant for the remaining 24 people.

More than half of the violence were young people in their 20s and 30s, according to the survey.

Before the Western District Court riot on the 19th, there were some people who protested and assaulted police officers, but some were arrested?

[Reporter]
Yes, it can be seen as separate from the so-called Western District Court riots.These are the people who committed the crime during the daytime on the 18th, when President

Yoon's interrogation of the suspect before his arrest was held.

They are accused of staging violent protests, such as assaulting police on the road in front of the court.

The Western District Court issued an arrest warrant for two of them, saying they were feared to flee.

However, the remaining three rejected the warrant, saying the degree of assault was relatively minor and there was no fear of destroying evidence.

A member of the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions who injured a police officer during a protest at his residence was also arrested?

[Reporter]
Yes, a member of the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions in his 50s who injured a police officer by taking away a police radio and throwing it near his official residence in Hannam-dong, Seoul, was also arrested on the 4th.

The reason for issuing an arrest warrant announced by the court is the fear of running away.

At that time, the police officer was reported to have suffered a laceration of about 3cm on his forehead.

There was also an article posted on the office worker's community blind that the police officer was in a coma.

As it turned out not to be true, the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions also sued the person who posted the post and the media outlets who reported it for defamation.
