The CIO was launched in 2021 as an independent anti-graft agency to probe high-ranking officials
SEOUL – South Korea n investigators arrested impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol on Wednesday for alleged insurrection over his bid to impose martial law, ending weeks of defiance and claims by Yoon and his lawyers that the arrest warrant was invalid.
The CIO was launched in January 2021 as an independent anti-graft agency to investigate high-ranking officials, including the president, and their family members as part of efforts to keep prosecutors in check. Prosecutors capable of investigating insurrection charges have been carrying out a separate investigation on Yoon.
Yoon's team has filed a complaint and an injunction with the Constitutional Court to review the warrant's legitimacy, though the Seoul Western District Court which issued the warrant has rejected a similar complaint. Police have acknowledged that there was a legal dispute over such a transfer but said they would consult the CIO.
