Choi also said the government would mobilise all possible police resources to parts of the capital Seoul, pledging no tolerance for any acts challenging public authority.

Security is being tightened around the court, with a ban on drone flights in the area already in place.

Both pro and anti-Yoon contingents are expected to take to the streets to hear the ruling that is due to come within days.
