South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol is expected to make a closing statement on Tuesday in a Constitutional Court trial reviewing his impeachment, as public hearings wrap up and his political fate is placed in the hands of eight judges.

If President Yoon Suk Yeol is removed from office, South Korea will have to hold fresh elections within 60 days.

South Korea’s impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol will get his last chance to defend himself before judges as they wrap up a trial to decide whether to permanently remove him from office for his ill-fated martial law declaration.

South Korean police are formally building a case against impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol over accusations he obstructed the execution of an arrest warrant, a police spokesperson said on Friday. A South Korean court issued an arrest warrant for Yoon on December 31 in a criminal investigation accusing the suspended leader of insurrection over his martial law decree last year.
