'Almost inevitable' that South Korea's embattled president 'will be serving time in prison'

South Korea's anti-corruption agency will resume questioning President Yoon Suk Yeol as part of a criminal probe into whether he committed insurrection, while the Constitutional Court holds a second hearing of the embattled leader's impeachment trial.

South Korea is grappling with its worst political crisis in decades, sparked by Mr Yoon's brief attempt to impose martial law on 3 December that was voted down by parliament.

 Authorities have 48 hours to question the suspended president, after which they must seek a warrant to detain him for up to 20 days or release him.
