Martial Law Declared in South Korea
South Korean authorities extend detention of President Yoon Suk Yeol after refusal to cooperate with investigators
Sitting South Korean president Yoon Suk Yeol has been arrested and taken into custody on Wednesday over a probe into alleged insurrection. He will not attend a new round of questioning by investigators on Friday, according to his lawyer. In order to prolong Yoon's custody, investigators are expected to request a detention warrant for up to 20 days. This would extend his detention beyond the initial 48 hours granted under the terms of the warrant executed on Wednesday.
