A South Korean court has again issued an arrest warrant for President Yoon Seok-yeol, citing the Anti-Corruption Investigation Department for High-Ranking Officials.
“An arrest warrant has been issued and the department has re-filed an application for it against suspect Yun”.
A day earlier, the department filed an application with the Seoul Western District Court for a “warrant to extend the arrest warrant.”
The previous arrest warrant for the president was in effect until January 6.
on January 6, it was reported that South Korean police had been permitted to arrest the country’s president, Yoon Seok-yul.
On December 31, a South Korean court issued an arrest warrant for the president at the request of the anti-corruption agency, which will expire on January 6. Yoon Seok-yeol’s defense team contested the order, arguing that the CIO did not have the authority to investigate the coup.
On January 5, Yun Seok-yeol’s guards were given permission to shoot during an attempt to arrest him.
On December 3, South Korean President Yun Seok-yul declared martial law in the republic. He explained this decision by the need to “eradicate pro-North Korean forces and protect the free constitutional order,” while journalists linked the head of state’s actions to attempts by his political opponents to conduct impeachment proceedings against him.
Against this backdrop, clashes between citizens and law enforcement officers occurred in the center of Seoul.
Investigators in South Korea halted an attempt to arrest the president by passing through a military cordon.
According to Yonhap, Oh Dong-woon, the chief of the Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials (CIO), remarked during a session of the National Assembly’s legislation and judiciary committee that he offered a “sincere apology” to the people. In response to criticism that the CIO was inadequately prepared to execute the warrant, Oh said there were “many unforeseen issues” and he takes “full responsibility”.
