Overview

• Min Joong-ki’s special counsel team arrived at the Seoul Detention Center on Aug. 1 to enforce a court-issued warrant but withdrew after Yoon refused to exit his cell.
• Yoon lay on the floor wearing only underwear to resist being brought out for questioning, citing health problems as justification.
• His legal team submitted records citing severe diabetes and eye ailments, while a medical officer at the facility says no serious health issues prevent his questioning.
• The detention warrant authorizes investigators to question him over alleged election meddling tied to his wife Kim Keon Hee and broker Myung Tae-kyun.
• Valid through Aug. 7, the warrant remains in force and the counsel office has warned it may resort to physical force in a subsequent execution attempt.
