South Korea The imputant President Yoon Suk Yeol was released from prison on Saturday after the court canceled his arrest to allow him to be tried for rebellion without physically detained.
This comes after Yoon arrested and charged prosecutors in January of his December 3 decree on December 3 – which led to political unrest in the country – that the National Assembly had voted a turnaround just hours later. The National Assembly also voted to disturb it, resulting in suspension from duty.
Yoon was seen waving his hand on Saturday, squeezing his fists and bowing to his supporters who shouted his name and waved the South Korean and American national flags. He entered a black van to travel to his residence in Seoul.

Yoon’s lawyers claimed that the investigating agency that detained him before the official arrest lacked the legal authority for the examination of the rebellion charges.
The Seoul Court also said that the legal period of his formal arrest had expired ahead of the indictment.
Yoon’s release from prison came after the prosecutors decided to appeal against the verdict from the Central District Court in Seoul. The South Korean law allows the plaintiffs to continue to hold the suspect in custody while following the appeal, even after the arrest by the court.
