South Korea's Yoon seeks court review of arrest legality
Hindustan Times Rajasthan
|January 17, 2025
South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol asked a Seoul court to review his detention on Thursday as he refused to attend fresh questioning by investigators over his failed martial law declaration.
SEOUL:
Yoon's legal team filed a request to the Seoul Central District Court to examine the legitimacy of the president's arrest, said Seok Dong-hyeon, one of his representatives. The court began to review the case at 5 pm local time.
Under the law, an arrested criminal suspect can ask a court to review the legality of their arrest. The court has 48 hours to review the case, and if it finds the request valid, Yoon will be released from detention immediately.
