South Korean police are prepared to mobilise “all available equipment” to prevent unrest when a court announces whether it upholds the impeachment of the country’s suspended president, Seoul’s police chief said Monday. The Constitutional Court is expected to announce its decision on the impeachment of President Yoon Suk Yeol this month over his declaration of martial law, with both supporters and opponents of the disgraced leader set to gather in Seoul’s streets. Yoon’s short-lived suspension of civilian rule plunged democratic South Korea into political turmoil and he was detained in a dawn raid in January on insurrection grounds, although released over the weekend on procedural grounds.
