South Korean officials said Tuesday that Roh Sang-won, a former head of the National Defense Intelligence Command suspected of involvement in President Yoon Seok-yoon's emergency martial law plan, has been transferred to prosecutors on charges of civil disorder.
The Yonhap news agency reported that a joint investigation team transferred retired army Major General Roh Sang-won to the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office and detained him on charges of civil disorder.
Roh is accused of discussing emergency martial law action plans with former and current military intelligence officers at a burger chain in Ansan, southwest of Seoul, two days before the imposition of emergency martial law and on Dec. 3, the day it was declared.
Police suspect Roh of discussing plans to form a private group of about 60 people to take control of the National Election Commission.
