With the arrival of police forces with a warrant The South Korean prosecutor was arrested at his place of residence, but he did not say anything during the 10-hour interrogation!
64-year-old Yule is the first sitting president of South Korea to be arrested. According to local media reports, while refusing to cooperate with the investigators, he cited physical problems as the reason for his absence from other interrogation sessions!
Investigators from South Korea’s Corruption Investigation Bureau expected to resume questioning at 2 p.m. local time, but Yul’s lawyer said his client was unable to attend the hearing.
Yol’s lawyer Yeon Kab-kyun told Yonhap: “The president is unwell and explained his position fully yesterday, so there is no further questioning.”
A large number of police forces entered Yule’s heavily guarded residence and arrested him yesterday by bypassing bus barriers, cutting barbed wire and using ladders.
The previous attempt of the investigators to arrest him failed due to the resistance of the residence guards and his supporters.

“Korea Times” wrote yesterday that several prosecutors and investigators from the Bureau of Investigation interrogated Yoon for about 10 hours, but he always refused to make any comments.
Yoon Seok-yul is detained in the Seoul Detention Center in Gwacheon, located in Gyeonggi Province. In his cell, there are facilities such as bed, TV and floor heating.
