SEOUL: A Seoul court on Wednesday rejected a warrant to arrest former Justice Minister Park Sung-jae over his alleged role in former President Yoon Suk Yeol's failed imposition of martial law.
The Seoul Central District Court said it denied the warrant sought by special counsel Cho Eun-suk's team, citing a lack of justification for an arrest or concerns about flight or evidence tampering.
It added that there was room for Park to dispute whether the actions he took violated the law.
