How likely are South Korean investigators to get extension on Yoon’s arrest warrant?

Investigators in South Korea on Monday (Jan 6) asked the court for an extension on their arrest warrant against impeached president Yoon Suk Yeol. The warrant is set to expire at midnight local time, with Yoon refusing questioning and holing up in his home. The country’s anti-corruption agency is also asking the police to help make the arrest. CNA’s Julie Yoo looks at what could happen next. Dr Jay Song, adjunct associate professor at the Korea Research and Engagement Centre of Curtin University, also shares her insights to CNA’s Asia Now.
