With the expiration of the Yoon Suk Yeol president's arrest warrant just a day away, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit continues to agonize over countermeasures.President Yun

strongly opposed the execution of the arrest warrant on the 3rd, signaling a legal action.

For more information, I'll connect you to the site. Reporter Lee Kyung-guk!

Please tell us the atmosphere of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit.

[Reporter]
The day before yesterday (3rd), when the warrant was executed, he was busy for execution, but no special movement has been detected yet today.

However, around 10 a.m., Oh Dong-woon, head of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, went to work at the government building, and most of the investigation teams went to work.

The validity of the arrest warrant for President Yoon issued by the court is until tomorrow (6th).

The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is still considering countermeasures.

Yesterday afternoon (4th), the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit sent an official letter to Acting President Choi Sang-mok, the command supervisor of the Presidential Security Service, asking him to direct the security service to cooperate in the execution of the arrest warrant.

In the end, it can be seen that the plan to re-enforce the warrant is still under consideration, but it is understood that Acting President Choi has not yet sent an answer.

The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is considering other options than re-enforcement of arrest warrants?

[Reporter]
Yes, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit explains that all possibilities are being reviewed and discussed.

The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit believes that if the arrest warrant is not executed within the expiration date, it is also possible to re-issue the warrant.

We are also considering requesting a preliminary arrest warrant for President Yoon.

This is because there was strong opposition from the Security Service and others during the previous execution, and President Yoon is also known to be refusing to comply with the execution of arrest warrants.President Yoon

said he would comply with the warrant review if the arrest warrant was legally requested.

[Anchor]
In the midst of this, President Yoon protested the arrest warrant and warned of legal action?

[Reporter]
Yes, President Yoon's legal representatives issued a statement today.

Regarding the execution of the arrest warrant, he announced on the 3rd that he would file a complaint against 150 people, including Senior Superintendent of Public Offices Oh Dong-woon, prosecutors, investigators, and police special teams, on charges of obstructing the execution of special public affairs.

In particular, the agents claimed that the head of the airborne department commanded the special police team and executed the arrest warrant unconstitutionally and illegally, even though he did not have the command.

In addition, Deputy Commissioner of the National Police Agency Lee Ho-young and Vice Minister of National Defense Kim Sun-ho abandoned their duties because they refused the security chief's request for legitimate cooperation, and they also predicted a complaint.

The deputies plan to file a complaint with the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office tomorrow.

So far, the airlift has delivered it to you.
