The prospect of prosecuting the prime minister and Cabinet ministers for their roles in a Dec. 3 martial law meeting has sparked a heated debate among legal experts.

While some say that, under the treason law's broad definition of accomplices, certain officials could be penalized for "passive complicity" Others say criminal charges would be difficult without evidence of active collaboration.

Merely failing to oppose or remain silent on martial law is unlikely to meet the legal threshold.
