SEOUL: South Korea's arrested former President Yoon Suk Yeol has been asked to appear for questioning by a special counsel team on Monday over his failed martial law bid, but whether he will appear for questioning remains unclear as he continues to cite health issues.
Yoon, who has been held at the Seoul Detention Center since his second arrest last Thursday, was asked to appear at the special counsel's office for questioning at 2 p.m. (local time).
He was initially summoned for a questioning scheduled for Friday afternoon, but did not appear after submitting a written reason for absence to special counsel Cho Eun-suk's team, citing health problems.
