The National Police Agency's National Investigation Headquarters has decided to mobilize all the detectives of the Metropolitan Police Agency's Metropolitan Investigation Team ahead of the execution of the second arrest warrant for President Yoon Suk Yeol.

According to the YTN report, there are a total of four places, including Seoul, southern Gyeonggi, northern Gyeonggi, and Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency.

It has been confirmed that the National Police Agency has sent an official document titled "Order to mobilize investigators belonging to the Seoul Metropolitan Area Security and Wide Area Investigation Functions."

We can mobilize investigators such as security and criminal mobilization, so please cooperate.

It is interpreted as the intention to put experienced detectives in charge of violent crime investigations into the execution of the second arrest warrant for President Yoon.

The specific mobilization method, schedule, and scale have not yet been confirmed.

However, there are more than 900 personnel under the four metropolitan investigation teams in Seoul, Gyeonggi and Incheon.

Including the existing special forces personnel who were in charge of the first execution attempt, there are well over 1,000 people.

As the police ordered the mobilization of detectives in the metropolitan area, it is expected to put a large amount of experience into the execution of the second arrest warrant.

It is also said that the National Assembly is also considering significantly increasing the number of police task force personnel from the existing 2,700 to maintain order around the government office during the second execution of the warrant.
