Yoon raises objection at 7th hearing

South Korean leader opposes the use of prosecution's reports as evidence in trial

South Korea's impeached President Yoon Suk-yeol on Tuesday opposed the use of the prosecution's reports, which include interrogations of key suspects involved in the martial law case, as evidence in his impeachment trial.

During the 7th hearing of the impeachment trial at the Constitutional Court in Seoul, Yoon said the investigations were not conducted consistently by a single entity, such as the prosecution, military prosecution, or the police, but rather involved multiple agencies in a disorganized manner, according to Yonhap News Agency.

"Even records from (the) National Assembly's hearings were mixed in as well," said Yoon, adding that it is inappropriate to adopt these records as evidence in a desultory manner and use them to establish facts.
