Demonstrators supporting and opposing South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol held rival protests several hundred metres apart in Seoul on Saturday, a week after he was impeached over his short-lived declaration of martial law.
Yoon’s presidential powers are suspended but he remains in office. He has not complied with various summonses by authorities investigating whether martial law, which he declared late on Dec 3 and rescinded hours later, constituted insurrection.
Yoon’s supporters and opponents held protests several hundred metres apart in Gwanghwamun in the heart of the capital. There were no clashes between the supporters and opponentsas of 4pm (0700 GMT)
