SEOUL: South Korea´s suspended President Yoon Suk Yeol refused a summons for questioning for the second time, an investigation team said on Monday, after he snubbed a previous one last week.
The conservative leader was stripped of his duties by parliament on December 14 after his brief declaration of martial law 11 days earlier, which plunged the country into its worst political crisis in decades.
Yoon faces impeachment and criminal charges of insurrection that could see him jailed for life, or even face the death penalty, over a drama that stunned democratic South Korea´s allies around the world. The anti-corruption body investigating Yoon´s short-lived martial law declaration said it had sent the summons to his office and residence.
