South Korea's Constitutional Court Begins Impeachment Process for President Yoon Suk-yeol Over Failed Martial Law Attempt on December 3, Decision Expected by December 27
Dec 16, 2024, 02:22 AM
South Korea's Constitutional Court has commenced proceedings to deliberate the impeachment of President Yoon Suk-yeol, following a parliamentary vote that deemed his attempt to impose martial law on December 3 as botched. The court's initial meeting took place on December 16, with a timeline of approximately six months to reach a decision on the impeachment. In parallel, South Korean prosecutors have summoned Yoon for questioning regarding the martial law declaration, but he did not comply with the initial summons. Prosecutors plan to issue another summon for Yoon, who faces potential charges of insurrection and abuse of power. The opposition has urged the court to act swiftly in the impeachment process, emphasizing the need to alleviate public distress caused by Yoon's actions.
