The Special Investigation Division of the Prosecutor’s Office has urgently imposed a travel ban on Lee Sang-min, the former Minister of the Interior and Safety.

“The prosecution has issued an emergency travel ban on former Minister of the Interior and Safety Lee Sang-min, who has been accused of a ‘martial law situation.'”
“The Prosecution’s Special Investigation Headquarters on Martial Law imposed the travel ban on the former minister through the Ministry of Justice yesterday.”
“Former Minister Lee has been charged with sedition and abuse of power, among other allegations.”
“Yesterday, he expressed his intention to resign, acknowledging the severe responsibility of not adequately serving the public and failing to assist the president well, and President Yoon Suk-yeol approved his dismissal.”
“Former Minister Lee, who attended the same Chun-Ang High School as President Yoon, immediately returned to Seoul from a regional event to attend the emergency martial law cabinet meeting on the day martial law was declared, December 3.”
“This has raised suspicions that he discussed the declaration of martial law with President Yoon in advance.”
“Additionally, on the night of December 4, he met with Minister of Justice Park Sung-jae and Director of Legislation Lee Wan-kyu at the presidential residence in Samcheong-dong, Jongno District, Seoul.”
