Ex-president’s wife Kim Keon Hee jailed for 20 months as rebellion verdict looms

Kim Keon Hee, wife of ousted South Korean president Yoon Suk Yeol, was sentenced to 20 months in prison for corruption after accepting luxury gifts from the Unification Church in return for political favors; two other charges were acquitted and she has been jailed since August, with an appeal likely. The ruling comes as Yoon awaits a verdict on a rebellion-related martial-law decree that could carry the death penalty or life imprisonment, though investigators say Kim was not involved in enforcing martial law.
