A South Korean court has approved an arrest warrant for President Yoon Suk Yeol after he refused three summons requests from investigators.
A South Korean court has issued an arrest warrant for President Yoon Suk Yeol, who has since been impeached and suspended from office following his attempt to impose martial law on the country in early December.
The Seoul Western District Court approved the warrant on Dec. 31, marking the first time a sitting South Korean president has faced an arrest warrant granted by a court, according to a report from Korea Herald.
Investigators requested the warrant after President Yoon failed to report for questioning a third time.
