A South Korean court approved the new arrest of former President Yoon Suk Yeol on Thursday over his brief imposition of martial law in December, citing the risk of evidence destruction. Yoon, previously impeached and released from detention in March, now faces additional charges including abuse of power and falsifying documents. Prosecutors accuse him of attempting an illegal power grab to suppress opponents. His new detention could last months as prosecutors seek further indictments, NPR has reported. Current President Lee Jae Myung has approved broad investigations into Yoon’s actions and other allegations against his administration.
