South Korea's Supreme Court upholds prison sentence for Yoon in first martial law case

South Korea's Supreme Court upheld a seven-year prison sentence for former President Yoon Suk Yeol in a case related to his 2024 martial law declaration. The court found him guilty of infringing on Cabinet members’ rights, falsifying documents, and deploying security forces to resist arrest. Yoon remains in detention and is appealing other convictions, including a life sentence for rebellion and a 30-year term for alleged drone flights to provoke tensions with North Korea.
