South Korean police investigating Yoon for insurrection
South Korean police are investigating President Yoon Suk Yeol for alleged 'insurrection' over his declaration of martial law, a senior police officer said Thursday.

Insurrection is a crime that transcends presidential immunity and can carry the death penalty.
Woo Jong-soo, head of the National Investigation Headquarters of the National Police Agency, told lawmakers that 'the case has been assigned', according to news agency AFP.
