South Korean police build case against impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol

South Korean police are formally advancing their case against impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol, accused of obstructing an arrest warrant linked to allegations of insurrection over his martial law declaration. The warrant was issued on December 31, 2024, but was not executed until January 15, 2025, after Yoon's security team reportedly hindered investigators. Yoon maintains that his actions do not constitute insurrection and his lawyers argue the warrant is invalid due to procedural errors. The case carries a potential penalty of up to five years in prison, and Yoon's immunity from most criminal charges could end if the Constitutional Court decides to impeach him. The court is expected to hear final statements from both Yoon and parliament soon, with a ruling anticipated in March. The situation remains politically charged, with Yoon's legal team alleging the investigation is politically motivated.
