President Yoon Suk Yeol has demanded that he seek or prosecute an arrest warrant before executing it.Yoon Kap-geun, a lawyer for President Yoon
, said at a press conference yesterday (8th), "The request for a preliminary arrest warrant or prosecution is the president's intention and will, and we will comply with the procedure through the Seoul Central District Court."Attorney
Yoon emphasized that even the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, which raised controversy over investigative rights, would comply with both arrest and arrest warrant procedures through the Seoul Central District Court.
President Yoon explained that if a preliminary arrest warrant is requested, it is a matter to decide after consulting with the court on security issues.Attorney
Yoon also said he would comply with enforcement, especially if prior warrants were issued by the court.
However, he reiterated his previous claim that responding to arrest warrants issued by the Seoul Western District Court is a bad precedent, stressing that if the arrest warrant is executed, he will issue a formal appointment and respond legally.
