A man in his 30s appeared at an arrest warrant hearing on Thursday at the Suwon District Court's Seongnam branch, alleged to be the accused in his estranged wife's murder. Police apprehended him on Tuesday following the stabbing outside their home in Gwangju, Gyeonggi Province. The couple, both in their 30s, were going through a divorce and the husband reportedly feared disadvantage in court proceedings.
