Kim Keon-hee noted on the 5th that the special prosecutor is coordinating the schedule and method for summoning former President Yoon Suk-yeol and stated that they would not execute the arrest warrant until the 6th.

The special prosecutor stated in a notice sent to reporters around 10:30 a.m. on the same day, "Since the appointment letter for former President Yoon's attorney has been received, we plan to discuss the schedule and method for the summons investigation with the attorney, so there are no plans to execute the arrest warrant today (5th) or tomorrow (6th)."

Earlier, the special prosecutor attempted to execute the arrest warrant for former President Yoon at the Seoul Detention Center on the 1st, but it was unsuccessful.

At that time, the special prosecutor said, "Former President Yoon firmly refused while lying on the floor without even wearing a robe." In response, the Yoon camp rebutted, "The claim that former President Yoon 'resisted arrest by taking off his clothes' is false."

During a briefing the previous day, the special prosecutor reiterated the plan to forcibly summon former President Yoon. However, since former President Yoon submitted the attorney appointment document, the special prosecutor changed its position to prioritize coordinating the schedule and method for the summons investigation. The deadline for executing the arrest warrant is until the 7th.
