South Korean parliament impeaches President Roh

SEOUL, South Korea -- South Korean parliament voted Friday to remove President Roh Moo-hyun from office on illegal electioneering and incompetence charges, in the country's first presidential impeachment bid.

Roh's presidential powers will be suspended as the matter is referred to the Constitutional Court for final approval to unseat the leader.

The impeachment passed by a vote of 193 to 2.
