South Korea's anti-corruption agency said it had asked police to take over the execution of an arrest warrant for impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol. A joint team of investigators from the Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials (CIO) and police are probing allegations that Mr. Yoon masterminded insurrection with his short-lived imposition of martial law. The CIO sent a notice to police to request the takeover, the anti-corruption agency said in a statement to reporters. A police official told the Yonhap news agency that they were "reviewing the law internally" following the request from the CIO. The Seoul Western District Court on Sunday dismissed the injunction filed by Yoon's legal team seeking to invalidate the warrants to arrest the President and search his official residence, according to Yonhap. Amid the ongoing political tensions, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken is visiting South Korea this week where he is due to meet senior government officials to reaffirm the alliance with Seoul, according to the U.S. State Department.
