South Korea’s justice ministry imposes travel ban on president over martial law attempt
The justice ministry in South Korea has imposed an overseas travel ban on President Yoon Suk Yeol following his botched attempt to impose martial law.
Prosecutors are now weighing possible insurrection charges against the president.
On Monday, the defence ministry said Yeol was still legally commander-in-chief, but growing dissent among senior military officers has led to questions on the scope of his powers.
Asked what actions have been taken against the president, Oh Dong-woon, head of the Corruption Investigation Office for high-ranking officials, said the president has been banned from leaving the country.
Yeol barely survived an impeachment vote, in an opposition-led parliament, during the weekend.
Amid strident calls for his resignation, his political survival hangs by a thread.
