South Korea's ousted president Yun Suk-yeol, who was briefly ousted over his martial law earlier this month, failed to appear for a second time in a week for questioning at the country's anti-corruption agency on Tuesday, South Korea's Yonhap news agency reported.
Yun, who declared martial law on Dec. 3 and was later removed from office after a vote to impeach him in the South Korean parliament, received a summons from a joint investigation team made up of representatives from the police, the High-Level Corruption Investigation Service and investigators from the Defense Ministry.
The former president was summoned to the High-Level Corruption Investigation Service building in Gwacheon, South from the capital Seoul.
Yoon is accused of leading a rebellion and abusing power through the declaration of martial law, Yonhap said.
His lawyer Seok Dong-hyun said yesterday that his client is unlikely to appear for questioning today, as he is currently prioritizing the Constitutional Court's actions regarding the validity of the impeachment.
