SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korea's Constitutional Court overturned on Thursday parliament's impeachment of Justice Minister Park Sung-jae for his involvement in the December 3 martial law declaration by ousted President Yoon Suk Yeol, a court official said.
Park was impeached in December by parliament, after being accused of aiding Yoon when the then president briefly imposed martial law, an action that triggered the country's worst political crisis in decades.
