SEOUL, Dec. 27 (Xinhua) -- South Korean police on Friday raided a presidential safe house where impeached President Yoon Suk-yeol allegedly met with senior police officers to discuss his plan to impose an emergency martial law, Yonhap news agency reported.
The raid aimed to secure CCTV footage and identify the people who entered the building just hours before the martial law was declared on Dec. 3, Yonhap said, citing police.
A simultaneous raid was being attempted on the Presidential Security Service, which is located separately on the presidential office compound, but investigators were being blocked from entering, according to police.
Yoon declared the emergency martial law on the night of Dec. 3, but it was revoked by the National Assembly hours later.
The South Korean parliament voted earlier this month to impeach Yoon over his short-lived imposition of the decree. ■
