Suspended South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol is accused of ordering military force to remove lawmakers during a vote against his martial law decree. An indictment alleges Yoon authorized soldiers to use guns if necessary to break into the National Assembly, amidst escalating political turmoil and protests following his decree.
