Impeached South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol Faces Arrest Over Martial Law Charges
The state anti-corruption agency plans to arrest impeached South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol after a Seoul court approved a warrant for his detention. The warrant, issued by the Seoul Western District Court on Tuesday, accuses Yoon of orchestrating a brief martial law declaration on December 3 and abusing his power. This makes Yoon the first sitting president in South Korea to face arrest. The Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials (CIO) is coordinating with the police to finalize the timing and method of the arrest.
