[Former South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol Faces New Charges]
BlockBeats News, August 12 – According to a report by Yonhap News on the 12th, South Korea's Second Comprehensive Special Prosecutor's Office has indicted former President Yoon Suk-yeol and former National Security Office Director Shin Won-sik on charges of disseminating information to justify the 'emergency martial law.' This brings the total number of criminal cases involving Yoon Suk-yeol to nine.
The special prosecutor's office stated that Yoon Suk-yeol is accused of, after announcing the 'December 3 Emergency Martial Law,' immediately instructing the National Security Office and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to convey information justifying the martial law to the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, the European Union, and other parties. He is suspected of abuse of power and obstruction of rights, specifically by misusing his authority to compel public officials to perform non-obligatory tasks.
