Sentinel Digital Desk

Seoul: The South Korean Supreme Court on Thursday overturned part of an appeals court ruling that had convicted the country’s first female President for corruption crimes. The justices sent the case back to the appellate Seoul High Court - which had confirmed a 25-year prison sentence for ex-president Park Geun-hye (in office between 2013-16) on a litany of corruption charges - citing procedural issues, Efe news reported.
