 Special counsel arrests former PM Hwang for allegedly inciting insurrection

Former Prime Minister Hwang Kyo-ahn was detained on Wednesday by a special counsel on charges of inciting an insurrection linked to the former president Yoon Suk Yeol’s declaration of martial law. Hwang, who served under former President Park Geun-hye, allegedly posted on Facebook after Dec. 3 calling for the removal of pro-North Korea forces and individuals accused of electoral fraud. He also urged the arrest of National Assembly Speaker Woo Won-shik and then-People Power Party leader Han Dong-hoon.

Investigators from special counsel Cho Eun-suk’s team executed a detention warrant at Hwang’s Seoul home in Yongsan Ward after he ignored three prior summonses for questioning. The special counsel is examining multiple allegations tied to Yoon’s martial law attempt, including proposals to declare martial law, preparing detention facilities, plotting violent acts to stage an insurrection, and incitement. Attempts to search Hwang’s residence previously failed because he kept his door closed, but his detention allowed investigators to carry out the search and seize evidence.
