SEOUL, Dec 5 (Reuters) - South Korean prosecutors have opened an investigation into President Yoon Suk Yeol, his interior minister, and the now-former defence minister over their roles in an attempt to impose martial law, Yonhap news agency reported on Thursday.
Kim Yong-hyun, who resigned as South Korean defence minister over his involvement in Tuesday’s martial law order, also faces a travel ban as prosecutors investigate, Yonhap said. The other two do not face such bans.
“Attempt”? The military had deployed and only stepped down when the president said to (not when the legislature said to}. Sounds like martial law was pretty successfully declared. It’s fortunate that he did back down…
They might wanna do an impeachment to immediately suspend the powers of the president first, I mean, theres nothing to stop the guy from just doing it again today.
