Execution of warrant to detain Yoon halted

This photo, taken on Jan. 3, 2025, shows the premises of impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol's official residence in Seoul, which investigators from the state anti-corruption agency and police officers left after failing to execute a warrant to detain Yoon over his failed bid to impose martial law in December. The agency, known as the Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials, suspended its attempt to execute the warrant following an hourslong standoff between investigators and presidential security staff.
