Seoul: A Seoul court will hold a hearing on former South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol's request for bail later this week, legal sources said on Tuesday.
The hearing will be held at the Seoul Central District Court at 10:30 a.m. Friday after Yoon filed for bail last week, citing his right to defend himself and issues with his health.
The bail hearing is expected to take place immediately after the first hearing of the second trial, Yonhap news agency reported.
On September 20, a special counsel team had notified Yoon to appear for questioning next week over allegations linked to his failed martial law bid.
The commanders had denied any link between the drone dispatch and Yoon's martial law, arguing the operations were part of response measures to the North's balloon campaigns against the South.
