Police slapped a travel ban on former Prime Minister Han Duck-soo and former Deputy Prime Minister for Economic Affairs Choi Sang-mok on Tuesday.

The ban comes after police questioned the two on Monday over their alleged involvement in now-deposed President Yoon Suk Yeol's controversial declaration of martial law on Dec. 3.

Former Minister of Interior and Safety Lee Sang-min was also questioned on Monday.
