When the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit stepped down without results five and a half hours after entering the official residence, the leadership of the People's Power immediately held a press conference and aimed at the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit.
The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, which does not have the right to investigate rebellion, has established that it has conspired with the judiciary to commit an act of exceeding authority to obtain an arrest warrant.
[Kwon Young-se / People's Power Emergency Management Committee Chairman: In a nutshell, this is an unfair transaction between the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit and a political judge. According to Article 84 of the Constitution, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, which does not have the authority to investigate, has obtained a warrant through judge shopping.]
President Yoon also urged that the principle of investigation without detention should be applied, saying there is no fear of escape or destruction of evidence.
[Kwon Young-se / People's Power Emergency Management Committee Chairman: It would be the right move in line with common sense to conduct a voluntary investigation based on the Constitution and laws and in accordance with the general principles of investigation.]
Some argued that the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit should withdraw from the investigation altogether.
[Kwon Seong-dong / People's Power Floor Leader: The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit should refrain from trying too hard to arrest the incumbent president. In order to resolve the controversy over the right to investigate the rebellion, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit should transfer the case to the police.]
Members of the party made protest visits to the court administration and the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, strongly protesting the first forced investigation of a sitting president in constitutional history.
Rep. Yoon Sang-hyun visited Hannam-dong's official residence and blocked the execution of a warrant for the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit,
It is true that some members of the
party criticize President Yoon for bringing the situation this far.
[Kim Sang-wook / Member of the People's Power (MBC Radio's "Kim Jong-bae's Attention")] It's a pity nationally that he's good at lying, cowardly, and hiding behind his back.]
{President Yoon is unable to abandon his kingly attitude that reigns above the law, and there was also a bone to say that true conservatism should protect the values of the Constitution.
Currently, the party's public opinion is dominant that the arrest of an unprecedented incumbent president should be prevented.
However, since President Yoon has sent a message to strong supporters, saying he will fight to the end, he seems to be trying to distance himself from the president.
