SEOUL, Aug. 29 (Xinhua) — The Republic of Korea's special prosecutor on Friday indicted Kim Geun-hee, the wife of ousted former President Yun Seok-yol, on charges of corruption and bribery.
Kim Geon-hee, who has been held in a pretrial detention center in Seoul since August 12, was charged by independent prosecutor Min Joon-ki, who is investigating the corruption case involving the former presidential couple.
The special prosecutor's team said in a brief statement that Kim Geon-hee was charged with violating the capital market law, the political funds law and the bribery-by-brokerage law.
Kim Gun-hee has become the first wife of a former South Korean president to face trial in custody.
Yun Seok-yeol has been held in a separate detention center since July 10 on charges of rebellion related to his brief imposition of martial law last December.
Kim Kun-hee, in turn, is suspected of involvement in stock price manipulation from 2009 to 2012, interference in the nomination of candidates for the 2022 parliamentary by-election and the 2024 general election, and receiving expensive gifts from the Unification Church in exchange for business favors. –0–
