[Former South Korean President Yoon Seok-yue was acquitted in the second instance of the case of suspected violation of the "Political Funds Act"] October 7th, South Korea's Seoul High Court sentenced former President Yoon Seok-yue in the second instance of the case of suspected violation of the "Political Funds Act" on the afternoon of the 7th, and Yin Seok-yue was found not guilty. South Korean prosecutors believe that Yoon Seok-yue is suspected of conspiring with his wife Kim Jian-hee to receive 58 public opinion polling services for free from "political broker" Myung Tae-gyun from June 2021 to March 2022, worth the equivalent of 270 million won. The prosecutor pointed out at the conclusion of the second trial that the polls involved in the case were artificially manipulated and the results were biased in favor of Yin Xiyue. Yoon Seok-yue not only accepted the poll from Myung Tae-gyun, but also negotiated with Myeong Tae-kyun on the survey method. Relevant behaviors have had a serious negative impact not only on the democratic system, but also on the transparency and fairness of the process of recommending candidates by political parties, and the criminal circumstances are serious. The court of first instance found that 14 of the 58 polls mentioned by the prosecutor were true and was found guilty. It sentenced Yin Xiyue to 2 years in prison and recovered more than 13.96 million won (approximately RMB 63,000). However, Jin Jianxi was prosecuted in another case on the same suspicion, but was acquitted in both the first and second instances. The case is being heard by the Supreme Court of South Korea, the highest court in South Korea. (CCTV News)
