South Korean investigators push to summon impeached president as court set to determine his fate

^{Published on 2024-12-16 01:01:23 - Seattle Times}

South Korean law enforcement authorities are pushing to summon impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol for questioning over his short-lived martial law decree.

South Korean investigators have requested that former President Park Geun-hye appear for questioning regarding her alleged involvement in a plot to impose martial law during the massive protests that led to her impeachment in 2017. The request comes as part of an ongoing investigation into whether Park and her aides conspired to use military force to suppress the candlelight vigils and demonstrations that ultimately resulted in her removal from office. The martial law plan reportedly included deploying the army, blocking communications, and detaining opposition leaders. Park, who has been indicted on multiple charges including bribery and abuse of power, has denied any wrongdoing in this particular case. This development adds another layer to the already complex legal challenges facing the impeached leader.
