South Korea’s impeached President, Yoon Suk Yeol, was released from detention on Saturday, AFP reporters witnessed, as he walked out of the detention center with a smile and bowed deeply before a crowd of waiting supporters.
Supporters cheered as the suspended president made his way past them, before entering a convoy of vehicles.
In a statement released through his lawyers, Yoon expressed his gratitude, saying, “I bow my head in gratitude to the people of this nation.”
