💨 Abstract

South Korea's former President Yoon Suk Yeol, ousted by the Constitutional Court this month, is facing trial on insurrection charges, alongside several military commanders and police officials. Yoon, who argues that his martial law declaration did not amount to insurrection, faces potential additional charges now that he has lost presidential immunity. If convicted, the punishment for leading an insurrection can include life imprisonment or even the death penalty.
