SEOUL, May 27 (Xinhua) — South Korean police have imposed an overseas travel ban on former Prime Minister Han Deok-soo and former Vice Prime Minister and Finance Minister Choi Sang-mok as part of an investigation into an alleged coup, local media reported Tuesday.

According to them, the former high-ranking officials are suspected of mutiny. The ban on their foreign travel came into force in mid-May.

The police’s special investigation unit summoned Han Duk-soo and Choi Sang-mok, as well as former Interior Minister Ri Sang-min, who was barred from leaving the country last December, for questioning on Monday.

Three former government officials are suspected of involvement in a failed attempt by former President Yoon Seok-yeol, who was ousted in April, to impose martial law. –0–
