Constitutional Court rejects justice minister's impeachment over martial law involvement
SEOUL, April 10 (Yonhap) -- The Constitutional Court on Thursday rejected the impeachment of Justice Minister Park Sung-jae over his alleged involvement in former President Yoon Suk Yeol's martial law bid in December.
The court's ruling immediately reinstated Park nearly four months after he was impeached by the National Assembly on charges of aiding and abetting Yoon before and after his surprise declaration of martial law on Dec. 3.
