A South Korean court approves an arrest warrant for President Yoon Suk-kyo on Tuesday, December
00:06
31. The Corruption Investigation Office for High-Ranking Officials, or CIO, confirms that
00:12
the Seoul Western District Court approved the warrant requested by investigators looking
00:16
into Yoon's brief martial law declaration. This marks the first arrest warrant ever issued
00:22
for an incumbent South Korean president. The court issued the warrant based on concerns
00:27
that Yoon might evade questioning. There is also significant evidence suggesting he
00:31
may have committed a crime. Yoon fails to respond to summons for questioning since the
00:36
December 3 martial law declaration. CIO says a search warrant for his residence was also
00:42
approved. The arrest warrant is valid until January 6. Once executed, Yoon is expected
00:48
to be detained at the Seoul Detention Center.
