The Special Investigation Team on Internal Unrest is at a loss over Yoon Suk-yeol's refusal to cooperate with the investigation!

On July 15, the spokesperson for the Special Investigation Team on Internal Unrest, Park Ji-young, stated that former President Yoon Suk-yeol and his defense lawyers have not submitted any documents or medical certificates proving they are unfit to appear in court since their first request to be investigated, which indicates that Yoon Suk-yeol is refusing the investigation.

The Special Investigation Team sent an official document to the director of the Seoul Detention Center yesterday, instructing them to enforce it by 2 p.m. that day, but the detention center failed to execute it. In response, the Special Investigation Team said: "Even if Yoon Suk-yeol refuses to make a statement, the investigation will continue!"

Moreover, if the detention center again fails to forcibly transport Yoon Suk-yeol to the prosecution building, the detention center itself will be investigated: "This morning, we investigated specific cases where correctional authorities' officials did not fulfill the special investigation team's enforcement order. If they continue to fail to fulfill the enforcement order in the future, we will take strict measures to hold them accountable."

When asked whether former President Yoon Suk-yeol would continue to refuse the special investigation team's summons, and whether the team would immediately file charges without further investigation in the absence of forced transportation, Park Ji-young said: "We are also considering this possibility."
