South Korea’s president was released after the court’s decision not to validate the request for his arrest. The final verdict of the Constitutional Court is awaited

Yoon Suk Yeol, South Korea’s president, was released after being suspended from office for an attempt to impose martial law in the country. The court decided not to validate the request for his arrest, accepting the appeal of the defence, which had raised doubts about the legality of the charges against the president.

The legal appeal and Yoon’s defence

Last month, Yoon’s defence had filed an appeal arguing that the charges against the president for trying to impose martial law were unlawful. This led to the court’s decision to release Yoon, cancelling the arrest request made by the South Korean authorities.

Yoon’s political future: the Constitutional Court will decide

Yoon’s case is still open, with South Korea’s Constitutional Court set to rule on his political future. The final verdict, expected mid-month, will decide whether Yoon should be formally removed from office or whether he can return to his role as president. During the last hearing, Yoon dismissed charges of ‘insurrection’, defending his actions as legitimate.
