Yoo Dong-gyu, former Planning Director of Seongnam Urban Development Corporation, who is known to have designed the project plan related to the Daejang-dong development suspicion in Seongnam, Gyeonggi Province, will face detention on the 3rd.

Judge Lee Dong-hee of the Seoul Central District Court will hold a pre-arrest detention hearing at 2 p.m. on the 3rd for Yoo, who is accused of breach of trust under the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes.

Earlier, the dedicated investigation team executed an arrest warrant for Yoo at a hospital on the morning of the previous day. The investigation team, concerned that Yoo might refuse to appear due to health issues, obtained the arrest warrant from the court around 9:26 a.m. and immediately secured his custody.

Originally, Yoo was scheduled to appear at the prosecution at 10 a.m., but he complained of acute abdominal pain in the early morning and visited the emergency room.
