South Korea's President Yoon Under Investigation as Ex-Defense Minister Attempts Suicide
Dec 11, 2024, 04:31 PM
South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol faces a deepening political crisis following his declaration of martial law last week. The National Assembly has approved a special investigation into Yoon's actions with a vote of 210 in favor, 63 against, and 14 abstentions. Amid the escalating investigation, police attempted to search the presidential office, facing resistance. Former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun, a close confidant of Yoon, was arrested on charges of rebellion and abuse of power and attempted suicide while in detention. This investigation involves multiple agencies, including the police, the Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials, and the defense ministry, focusing on the circumstances leading to the martial law declaration. It has been alleged that Kim ordered a drone deployment to North Korea to lay the ground for the martial law declaration.
