This was the second bid to arrest the impeached president, following a failed attempt on Jan.3 when agents from South Korea’s Presidential Security Service had blocked investigators from entering Yoon’s residence. About 3,000 police officers were involved in the second attempt to secure access to Yoon’s compound, news agency Yonhap said. South Korean media outlets also reported Yoon in a pre-recorded video said that “the law of the country has collapsed,” and called the CIO’s investigation “illegal.” Yoon said he would appear before the CIO to “prevent an unpleasant bloodshed,” |
