“South Korean anticorruption investigators have said they will seek a warrant to extend the detention of President Yoon Suk-yeol after the impeached leader again refused to undergo questioning over his short-lived declaration of martial law. South Korea’s Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials (CIO) said on Friday it would ask a court to approve an extension of Yoon’s detention by up to 20 days.” (01/17/25)
