South Korean court on Tuesday approved an arrest warrant for President Yoon Suk Yeol, who was stripped of his presidential powers just weeks ago over his short-lived martial law decree that threw the country into political chaos.    <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph inline-placeholder vossi-paragraph\" data-uri=\"cms.cnn.com\/_components\/paragraph\/instances\/cm5bslzq0000p3b6mzdkgyaer@published\" data-editable=\"text\" data-component-name=\"paragraph\" data-article-gutter=\"true\">            This is the first time a sitting South Korean president has faced an arrest warrant granted by a court.    <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph inline-placeholder vossi-paragraph\" data-uri=\"cms.cnn.com\/_components\/paragraph\/instances\/cm5bslzq0000r3b6md91homoj@published\" data-editable=\"text\" data-component-name=\"paragraph\" data-article-gutter=\"true\">            South Korea\u2019s parliament voted to impeach Yoon on December 14 in an extraordinary rebuke that came about after his own ruling party turned on him following his refusal to resign.    <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph inline-placeholder vossi-paragraph\" data-uri=\"cms.cnn.com\/_components\/paragraph\/instances\/cm5bslzq0000q3b6m60c2t6la@published\" data-editable=\"text\" data-component-name=\"paragraph\" data-article-gutter=\"true\">            South Korea\u2019s anti-corruption agency said the Seoul Western District Court granted the warrant for Yoon, who is facing a probe on charges of abuse of authority and orchestrating a rebellion after he announced martial law on December 3.    <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph inline-placeholder vossi-paragraph\" data-uri=\"cms.cnn.com\/_components\/paragraph\/instances\/cm5bslzq0000s3b6mklbilfpb@published\" data-editable=\"text\" data-component-name=\"paragraph\" data-article-gutter=\"true\">            The arrest warrant was issued after Yoon, a former prosecutor, had refused to answer three summonses by investigators in recent weeks asking for his cooperation, according to the Corruption Investigation Office (CIO).    <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph inline-placeholder vossi-paragraph\" data-uri=\"cms.cnn.com\/_components\/paragraph\/instances\/cm5bslzq0000t3b6mpn3sepff@published\"
