2 men imprisoned after being found guilty of storming court, causing criminal damage

Also on the local front.

Two men, surnamed So and So, have been sentenced to a year and a year-and-a-half in prison, respectively, after attacking the Seoul Western District Court in January.

They were also found guilty of throwing bricks and storming the court building.

The offenses happened after the court issued an arrest warrant for former President Yoon Suk Yeol over insurrection charges.

On Wednesday, judges said the crimes were committed because of their obsession with what they believed was a political plot behind the arrest warrant being issued by the judiciary.

Out of around 90 people currently facing trial on similar charges, these two were the first to get prison sentences.
