South Korea's special prosecutor sought a 10-year prison sentence for former President Yoon Suk-yeol due to obstruction of justice and other charges related to his failed attempt to impose martial law, Yonhap reported on Friday.
The request, made by special counsel Cho Eun-suk's team, was the first prison term request made over Yoon's charges. "The defendant's criminal acts seriously damaged law and order in the Republic of Korea and inflicted a large wound on the people who trusted him and chose him as president," said a member of the team.
"In order to repair the Constitution and legalism damaged by the defendant and prevent a repeat of power abuse crimes by the most powerful figures in the Republic of Korea's history, we must demand strict accountability," the special counsel stressed.
