Ousted South Korean leader Park Geun-hye has now left the presidential palace, two days after judges upheld parliament's decision to impeach her. 
She apologised "for failing to fulfil my duty to the end," Park was quoted as saying in a statement read by her former spokesman. 
South Korea's first female president, was impeached by the National Assembly in December on charges of colluding with her close friend Choi Soon Sil to extort money from top South Korean companies and of allowing her confidante to interfere with state affairs. 
The country's constitutional court upheld the ruling on Friday. 
"Although it may take time, I believe the truth will eventually be revealed," the statement said. 
Park has returned to her private residence south of Seoul
 Increasingly violent protesters in support of ousted President Park Geun-hye clashed with police Saturday amid tensions over the Constitutional Court's historic ruling to uphold her impeachment because of a massive corruption scandal. 
Hours ahead of their rally to call for the nullification of the verdict in central Seoul, dozens of Park supporters threw combustible substances and sprayed fire extinguishers at a police station in an angry reaction to the police's move to tighten security around their protest site. 
Four of them were taken into custody for investigation, according to South Korea's news agency (Yonhap). 
Protests by Park supporters are becoming increasingly violent. Since the court's ruling to dismiss Park on Friday, three people have died, reportedly from injuries they sustained during rallies in the capital. 
Park's core supporters have argued that the unprecedented verdict, which is unchallengeable, was biased and must be reversed. 
Acting President and Prime Minister Hwang Kyo-ahn has urged South Koreans people to accept the court's decision and work together to end divisions and restore national unity.
