The president of Yoon Suk Yeol has repeatedly confirmed that the impeachment trial comes first rather than the investigation.

He also said he should consider whether the investigation rights are in the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit.

I'll connect with the reporter and find out. Reporter Youngsoo Kim!

[Reporter]
Yes, it's a high-ranking government official's criminal investigation office.

Should I say that the possibility of President Yoon Suk Yeol attending the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit has decreased a little?

[Reporter]
He says he will consider it for now, but it seems unlikely that President Yoon Suk Yeol will respond to the third summons.It was the day after tomorrow and the 29th that the

high-ranking government official's criminal investigation office asked President Yoon Suk Yeol to attend.

However, Yoon Gap-geun, a lawyer in charge of public affairs for President Yoon, confirmed once again that the Constitutional Court's impeachment trial should proceed first.

He also mentioned that there is room for interpretation of which agency has the right to investigate the case, and it seems that he mentioned the right to investigate the rebellion, which was controversial at the beginning of the investigation.

He also refuted that the request for an arrest warrant was too far ahead, saying that this is the second time, not the third time, that the request for a summons was requested by the government.

How is the position of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit?

[Reporter]
First of all, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is not an official lawyer, so it is not responding to President Yoon's position one by one.

First of all, I will wait until the morning of the 29th when I notified the summons.

The next step is expected to be discussed and judged after the absence is finally confirmed.

As President Yoon Suk Yeol has pointed out the right to investigate, it is expected to prepare for the logic of refutation on this part.

Earlier, an official from the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit explained that if he is not present on the 29th, it will not take long to decide on the next step.

As in the second round, the 3rd request for attendance sent by the Dong-A Ilbo was not delivered due to reasons such as refusal to receive it.
