South Korea's President Yoon Suk Yeol Arrested

South Korea's political landscape has been rocked by the arrest of impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol, who is facing allegations of insurrection following his controversial declaration of martial law on December 3. Yoon, who has been under heavy security since his impeachment, was detained by authorities amid protests from his supporters. This unprecedented move marks the first time in South Korea's history that an incumbent president has faced such charges, with Yoon claiming the investigation is illegal and asserting he complied to prevent potential violence. The political turmoil began when Yoon attempted to assert control amid opposition protests, leading lawmakers to nullify his martial law declaration and subsequently impeach him. A constitutional court is now deliberating whether to uphold the impeachment, which has left the nation in a state of uncertainty. As the situation unfolds, Yoon's legal team argues that the arrest warrant is invalid and challenges the authority of the investigating agency.
