Yoon Suk-yeol Defies Third Summons on December 29, 2024, in Martial Law Investigation Amid Arrest Warrant Speculation

Dec 29, 2024, 01:08 AM

South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol has defied a third summons from the Corruption Investigation Office (CIO) related to an inquiry into alleged martial law violations. Despite the approaching deadline for his appearance, President Yoon has maintained a strategy of non-response, raising concerns about the potential for an arrest warrant. The CIO had previously requested Yoon's presence for questioning regarding allegations of insurrection. As of December 29, 2024, Yoon has not submitted any legal representation documents to the CIO, further complicating the situation. The investigation is drawing significant attention as Yoon continues to evade the summons, with speculation growing about the possibility of an arrest warrant being issued.
