South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol has been arrested for questioning, according to the country’s anti corruption agency, in the latest chapter of a weekslong political saga that began with the embattled president’s shock martial law decree last month.

Yoon left his residential compound with investigators in a motorcade Wednesday morning and was taken into custody – the first time such an action has been taken against a sitting president in South Korea.

Yoon is wanted for questioning in multiple investigations related to his short-lived declaration, including over accusations of leading an insurrection – a crime punishable by life imprisonment or even the death penalty.

The embattled president has been holed up in his fortified residence for weeks surrounded by his Presidential Security Service team, evading arrest as he faces several probes and an impeachment trial.


The Corruption Investigation Office (CIO), which is working with police and the defense ministry to investigate Yoon, first attempted to detain him earlier this month, but it failed after an hours-long showdown in which soldiers and members of the presidential security detail blocked some 80 police and investigators from approaching the presidential compound.

Following his arrest, Yoon released a pre-recorded video message Wednesday in which he again dismissed the investigations into him as “illegal” and said “the law is all broken in this country.”

“As a president who must protect the constitution and legal system of the Republic of Korea, responding to these illegal and invalid procedures is not an acknowledgment of them, but in the hopes of preventing unsavory bloodshed,” he said.

The warrant allows investigators to hold Yoon for up to 48 hours. The CIO would need to apply for an arrest warrant within that period to detain him further.

#체포된 윤 대통령, 과천 공수처 도착‥곧 조사 시작-mbc

내란 우두머리 혐의로 오늘 오전 체포된 윤석열 대통령이 고위공직자범죄수사처 청사로 이송됐습니다.

윤 대통령이 탄 경호 차량은 오늘 오전 10시 53분께 정부과천청사 5동 공수처에 도착했습니다.

윤 대통령은 차에서 내려 곧바로 공수처 청사 안으로 들어갔습니다.

경호처 차량이 사선으로 주차장에 주차해 윤 대통령이 청사 안으로 들어가는 모습은 거의 제대로 보이지 않았습니다.

공수처는 곧 윤 대통령을 상대로 피의자 조사에 나설 예정입니다.

주임 검사인 차정현 부장검사가 직접 조사할 예정입니다.

신문을 위한 질문지 분량이 200여 쪽으로 방대한 만큼 이대환 부장검사도 조사에 투입될 것으로 보입니다.

현직 대통령 예우 차원에서 조사 전에 오동운 처장이나 이재승 차장과 면담이 이뤄질 가능성도 있습니다.

공수처는 고강도 조사를 마친 뒤 윤 대통령을 경기도 의왕시 서울구치소에 구금할 예정입니다.
