ChainCatcher news, according to Yonhap News Agency, the South Korean prosecution, which is investigating the emergency martial law situation on December 3, stated on the 8th that President Yoon Suk-yeol is being investigated as a suspect for alleged treason.

Park Se-hyun, head of the special investigation team for the emergency martial law situation (Chief Prosecutor of the Seoul High Prosecutors' Office), stated at a press conference that they have received many reports accusing Yoon Suk-yeol of committing treason, and the prosecution is investigating according to procedures. Park Se-hyun said that the prosecution has no plans to refrain from investigating treason and will investigate both abuse of power and treason allegations. Although treason is not originally within the scope of prosecution investigations, the Prosecutors' Office Act allows the prosecution to investigate crimes directly related to abuse of power. In this case, the allegations of treason and abuse of power are inseparable.
