Yoon's election law conviction upheld on appeal
An appellate court on Wednesday upheld former President Yoon Suk Yeol's conviction for making false statements during his 2022 presidential campaign, confirming an 18-month prison term suspended for three years, Yonhap and KBS World report. If the ruling becomes final after a Supreme Court review, it could require the main opposition People Power Party to return about 39.7 billion won (nearly $30 million) in campaign expenses, according to Hankyoreh and Yonhap. The PPP said it will wait for the final verdict, KBS World reports.
