South Korea's suspended President Yoon Suk Yeol attended a fourth hearing at the Constitutional Court.

The South Korean Agency leading the criminal investigation into impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol has recommended that he would be charged with insurrection and abuse of power.

Investigators handed the results of their 51-day probe into the December 3 attempt to declare martial law to prosecutors on Thursday. Yoon was arrested last week in a dramatic standoff with security over his martial law bid, becoming South Korea's first sitting president to be detained.
