The Seoul Central District Court will hear from the special counsel team investigating Yoon's martial law decree in December and Yoon's legal team on the request to detain the deposed president over allegations of abuse of power and obstruction of justice. After the hearing, Yoon is expected to await the court's decision at the Seoul Detention Center, or in a detention area within the court, the special prosecutor's team has said. There has been tight security around the court, which is expected to announce a decision late on Wednesday or in the early hours of Thursday. #SouthKorea @asianomics
