After the execution of the arrest warrant for Yoon Suk Yeol's president failed, the high-ranking government official's criminal investigation office continues to struggle with the next step.

Along with the re-execution of the warrant, we are also considering requesting an arrest warrant immediately.

Reporter Kim Chul-hee reports.

The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, which failed to execute the arrest warrant for President Yoon Suk Yeol after more than five and a half hours of confrontation, is weighing whether or not to re-enforce it.

Since the warrant deadline is Monday, it can be re-executed in a surprise move on Sunday or Monday.

However, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit believes that if the security agency mobilizes hundreds of people to prevent it as it did in the first attempt, it will be difficult to execute it.It is not known at this time whether Acting President Choi Sang-mok will respond to the request of

to direct the security service so that the warrant can be executed.

For this reason, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is also considering requesting a preliminary arrest warrant without investigation.

An official from the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit also left room, saying that the weight is not only on re-execution.

If an arrest warrant is actually requested and the suspect is interrogated before the arrest, President Yoon is expected to cooperate.

It means that the court, not the investigative agency, will actively clarify the charges,
There is a possibility that President
will attend and speak in person.

However, even if an arrest warrant is issued, it is a stumbling block that it is unclear whether President Yoon will respond to the recruitment.

As there are many gateways to overcome regardless of whether to re-execute or request an arrest warrant, concerns about the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit are deepening.
