Today (25th), Christmas Day, is the second time the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit has notified President Yoon Suk Yeol of his summons, but as the president is unlikely to respond, the police's plan to prove the president's charges with the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is also expected to be disrupted.

At the same time, the police are expanding their investigation into military officials.

How is the atmosphere of noodles?

Yes, the police planned to launch a joint investigation into the president if President Yoon attends the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit today.As President

Yoon has not yet attended the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, the police are also expected to consider the direction of the investigation.

In the midst of this, the police are gathering investigative power to prove President Yoon's alleged rebellion and abuse of authority.

Following securing general mobile phone communication details used by the president three days ago, the presidential office and the security office asked the presidential office and the security office to preserve the data of the security phone that police chief Cho Ji-ho and others spoke with President Yoon during the emergency martial law.

This is an alternative to the failure of two server raids due to the non-cooperation of the security agency.

All members of the State Council who attended the Cabinet meeting just before the declaration of martial law were also investigated except for former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun, who was secured by the prosecution.

With only an investigation of President Yoon Suk Yeol left among the participants in the Cabinet meeting, attention is being paid to what measures the president will come up with in the future without cooperating with the investigation.

The police are speeding up the investigation by appointing the commander of the Army's 2nd Armored Brigade and others, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, the police booked all those involved in the so-called "hamburger restaurant meeting" that took place twice as suspects.

On the 3rd, the day of martial law's declaration, the summons was notified to the head of the Army's 2nd Armored Brigade and Bang Jung-hwan, the innovation planning officer of the Ministry of National Defense, who attended the second meeting.

The police believe that former commander Roh set up a "second stage of investigation" of about 60 people under his private organization under the joint investigation headquarters of the martial law command.

The chief of the Gusamhoe Brigade, who decided to head the second investigation, waited at the office of the 100th Intelligence Brigade in Pangyo at the time of martial law, raising suspicions that he was trying to mobilize a tank unit to martial law.

The police also said they have secured statements from officials at the counterintelligence command that the prosecution and the National Intelligence Service went to the NEC on the day of martial law and were ordered to apply.

The prosecution countered that it was not true, but Jung Sung-woo, the first director of the counterintelligence agency, who was found to have received specific instructions from the counterintelligence commander at the time of Yeo In-hyeong, is also expected to switch from a reference to a suspect, summon him, and continue investigating the alleged involvement.
