South Korea’s Justice Ministry announced Monday that a travel ban has been placed on President Yoon Suk Yeol as investigations into his recent martial law declaration continue.
South Korea’s Justice Ministry announced that a travel ban has been placed on President Yoon Suk Yeol as investigations into his recent martial law declaration continue. Police, prosecutors, and the anti-corruption agency requested the ban, citing possible rebellion charges.
Last week, Yoon declared martial law, sending special forces into Seoul. The decree, which lasted just six hours before being overturned by the National Assembly, caused political turmoil and raised concerns among neighboring countries.
Opposition parties have labeled the declaration unconstitutional and plan to file a new impeachment motion after an earlier attempt failed. Investigators are also examining the roles of top officials, including former Defense Minister Kim Yong Hyun, who has been detained.
Yoon apologized for the decree on Saturday, promising to take responsibility. Meanwhile, his party is discussing plans for an early and smooth transition of leadership, though critics argue these moves may violate constitutional rules.
The investigation is ongoing as South Korea navigates this period of political uncertainty.
