South Korea investigators attempt to arrest impeached president for second time | BBC News


South Korean investigators are trying once more to arrest impeached president Yoon Suk Yeol following a failed attempt earlier this month.

They had tried to arrest Yoon on 3 January but had to turn back after being locked in an hours-long stand-off with members of the Presidential Security Service (PSS).

The arrest is expected to be carried out with the help of veteran police detectives, local media reported.

Lawyers for Yoon have criticised the planned use of police officers, saying it was a betrayal of the public.

Yoon’s impeachment trial, which will decide if he is removed from office, started yesterday but ended within four minutes because of his absence.
