SEOUL, January 6 (Xinhua) — Police in the Republic of Korea (ROK) on Tuesday raided the office of the special prosecutor investigating impeached former President Yun Seok-yul, who is accused of attempted coup and other crimes, the Renhap News Agency reported.

The Special Investigative Team of the National Police Agency of the Republic of Kazakhstan sent investigators to the office to seize materials related to allegations that the Ministry of Justice attempted to secure detention space in correctional facilities during the brief imposition of martial law in the country in December 2024.

Police said the current search was related to charges brought against the former head of the Justice Ministry's correctional service for carrying out important tasks in organizing the mutiny.

The special investigation team continued its investigation into former President Yoon Seok-yel's attempted coup and other crimes after the investigations conducted by special prosecutors concluded.

A special prosecutor has found that the former head of the correctional service checked the capacity of pretrial detention centers in the Seoul metropolitan area during the imposition of martial law on the orders of former Justice Minister Park Sung-jae, who is accused of aiding the rebellion.

Yun Seok-yeol declared a state of emergency on the night of December 3, 2024, but it was lifted a few hours later by the National Assembly (parliament) of the Republic of Korea.

Last April, the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Kazakhstan upheld the impeachment petition against Yun Seok-yul, officially removing him from office.

In January 2025, the ousted leader of the state was arrested on charges of organizing a rebellion. –0–

UNITED NATIONS, Jan. 6 (Xinhua) — Venezuela's permanent representative to the United Nations, Samuel Moncada, on Monday asked the Security Council to take action following the U.S. air strike on his country over the weekend.

Venezuela urges the UN Security Council to fully assume its responsibility and act in accordance with the mandate entrusted to it by the UN Charter, said S. Moncada at an emergency meeting of the Security Council.

“In this regard, we ask that the government of the United States of America fully respect the immunity of President /of Venezuela/ Nicolás Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores, as well as their immediate release and safe return to Venezuela,” the Permanent Representative said.

N. Maduro and his wife were forcibly removed from Venezuela and taken to the United States.

S. Moncada demanded that the Security Council clearly and unequivocally condemn the use of force against Venezuela and reaffirm the principle of non-acquisition of territory and resources by force.

He also called for measures aimed at de-escalation, the protection of civilians and the restoration of international law.

He said the military action taken on Saturday against Venezuela constituted a grave violation of the UN Charter, in particular the principle of the sovereign equality of States, the prohibition of the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any State, and the obligation to settle disputes by peaceful means.

According to the Permanent Representative, the US actions also constitute a serious violation of the Geneva Conventions and Protocols.

If the kidnapping of a head of state, the bombing of a sovereign state, and the open threat of further military action are tolerated or downplayed, a devastating signal will be sent to the world that law is not binding and force is the true arbiter in international relations, warned S. Moncada. –0–

BEIJING, Jan. 6 (Xinhua) — No country can act as an international police force or claim to be an international judge, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said on Tuesday.
