South Koreans Protest as Impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol Defies Arrest Warrant
Jan 11, 2025, 10:12 AM
Thousands of South Koreans have taken to the streets in protest as impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol refuses to comply with a court-issued arrest warrant. Demonstrators from opposing groups gathered in Seoul, with some demanding Yoon's arrest and others calling for his impeachment to be declared invalid. The unrest follows Yoon's directive to soldiers to storm parliament in an attempt to prevent a vote against martial law, which led to his impeachment. Yoon, facing charges of insurrection, remains barricaded in his official residence, which has been fortified with barbed wire and vehicles. The presidential security chief resigned amid questions about blocking Yoon's arrest, and Acting Leader Deputy Prime Minister Choi Sang-mok has urged lawmakers to resolve the crisis through an independent investigation.
