Former military counterintelligence chief arrested over martial law
- Yeo In-hyung, former chief of the Defense Counterintelligence Command, was arrested for his involvement in the Dec. 3 martial law incident. He is the second high-ranking official to be detained following the arrest of former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun.
The article discusses the arrest of Maj. Gen. Ivan Popov, the former head of Russia's 58th Combined Arms Army, who was detained on suspicion of fraud involving the theft of metal products worth over 130 million rubles ($1.4 million). Popov, who was dismissed from his military position in July 2023 after publicly criticizing the Russian military leadership for inadequate support during the Ukraine conflict, was arrested in a high-profile operation involving Russia's Investigative Committee. His arrest comes amidst a broader crackdown on dissent within the Russian military, highlighting internal tensions and corruption issues. Popov's outspokenness about the military's shortcomings, including the lack of counter-battery combat and reconnaissance, had previously led to his dismissal, and his arrest further underscores the Kremlin's efforts to suppress criticism and maintain control over the narrative surrounding the ongoing war in Ukraine.
