South Korea: Yoon indicted

Source: Axios

“South Korea’s impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol was indicted on insurrection charges on Sunday after he briefly declared martial law last month, prosecutors told local media. Yoon is the first sitting president to both be arrested and indicted on criminal charges. He could face life in prison or even the death penalty if convicted of insurrection because presidential immunity doesn’t extend to such an offense in South Korea.” (01/27/25)
