The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit...The prosecution's investigation team is "rebounded."

[Anchor]
Prosecutors investigating martial law have decided to hand over the case of President Yoon Suk Yeol to the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit.

There are voices of opposition from within the prosecution, which was investigating with special copies.

I'm connecting with the reporter. Reporter Youngsoo Kim!

[Reporter]
Yes, this is the special investigation headquarters of the prosecution.

[Anchor]
First of all, will the controversy over the overlapping investigation end?

[Reporter]
Yes, it is.

This morning, it was reported that Senior Superintendent of Airborne Affairs Oh Dong-woon and Deputy Superintendent Lee Jin-dong of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office will meet.
It was said that there would be a discussion about the transfer of the
incident, but the results came out earlier than expected.

The prosecution and the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit sent the same notice to the media at the same time.

The prosecution said it would hand over the case of the suspect, President Yoon Suk Yeol and former Minister Lee Sang-min to the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit.

However, with the request of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, the transfer of the remaining suspects has been withdrawn.

But there's opposition within the prosecution?

[Reporter]
Yes, it is.

Since the martial law incident, the prosecution has been speeding up its investigation by forming a large-scale special copy with Seoul High Prosecutor Park Se-hyun as the head of the headquarters.

However, it is reported that there are voices of opposition when the transfer of the case was decided ahead of the investigation into the peak.

Director Park Se-hyun visited the Great Sword this afternoon.

There were also observations that it might be a protest visit,

However, the Supreme Prosecutors' Office was convened by the Prosecutor General, and Director Park visited the Supreme Prosecutors' Office,
He explained that he discussed the future direction of the investigation regarding the consultation on some transfers of the
Airborne Department.

So the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit will be in charge of everything from summoning the president of Yoon Suk Yeol to investigating?

[Reporter]
First of all, the prosecution prosecutes the case for sure.

There is a set of targets for prosecution by the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit in the relevant law, but the president is not included in this.It seems necessary to discuss the overall investigation, including the summoning of President

Yoon.

You can think of a way for prosecutors to join the investigation of President Yoon's summons, but the prosecution reads the negative trend.

An official of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office said, "Although we consult well with the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, the presence of prosecutors does not seem to be appropriate."

In addition, statements from military officials such as former Minister Kim Yong-hyun who received direct orders or Yeo In-hyeong counterintelligence commander may be needed to prove President Yoon's allegations.

Everyone is arrested by the prosecution, so we need to wait and see how the consultation will proceed.

What happens to the request for attendance made by the prosecution or the headquarters?

[Reporter]
The prosecution has issued a summons to President Yoon Suk Yeol to appear on the 21st.

This is the second request for attendance after the 15th.

As I told you, detailed consultations have not yet been made, so this part needs to be discussed.

However, as the case is transferred to the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, it is expected that it will be difficult to investigate according to the request for attendance sent by the prosecution.

Whether the failure to comply with the prosecution's summons earlier will accumulate in the form of "refusal to investigate" at the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit stage is expected to wait for judgment in the future.

Now that the investigative agency for the president has been organized, I'm curious about the position of the lawyers?

[Reporter]
I think I'll be able to listen to it tomorrow.

Before the lawyers were set up, lawyer Seok Dong-hyun, a close aide of President Yoon Suk Yeol, decided to meet with reporters again tomorrow following yesterday.

Lawyer Seok Dong-hyun mentioned earlier that the investigation between the prosecution and the police is so competitive that it needs to be sorted out.

It's not an official briefing, but as lawyer Seok is involved in forming the defense team,
It is expected that the
lawyers will be able to confirm their position on the transfer or summons investigation of the case of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit.

So far, I'm YTN Youngsoo Kim in the special prosecution.
