South Korean ex-minister gets 25-year sentence

A court in South Korea has sentenced former Justice Minister Park Sung Jae to 25 years in prison after finding him guilty of assisting the ousted President Yoon Suk-yeol in executing the martial law declaration in 2024. He was charged with "rebellion" for playing a key role in an attempt by Yoon to seize power, including issuing orders to assess prison capacities and prepare for travel bans. Meanwhile, prosecutors had requested a 20-year prison sentence, accusing him of abuse of authority and undermining the rule of law. Yoon Suk-yeol had unexpectedly declared martial law in December 2024, only to rescind it after parliamentary resistance.
