Former president Yoon Suk-yeol was back in a solitary jail cell with basic food and a khaki prison uniform after prosecutors secured a new detention warrant over his bid to impose martial law last year.
The Seoul Central District Court’s decision to approve the warrant bolstered the special counsel investigation into allegations that Yoon’s move in December represented obstruction of justice and abuse of power.
