Yoon faces 10-year term as prosecutors press appeal

Prosecutors sought a 10-year prison term for former President Yoon Suk Yeol at an appellate hearing on obstruction of justice and related charges, tied to his alleged attempts to evade arrest following his failed Dec. 3, 2024, martial law declaration. At the final hearing at the Seoul High Court, a special counsel team led by Cho Eun-suk requested the same sentence as in the first trial, citing the seriousness of the case.
