The police's special investigation team focused on Yoon's Dec. 3 martial law declaration searched the presidential office's secure phone server and the PSS office and residence, said Yonhap News Agency.
Earlier this month, South Korea’s Constitutional Court removed Yoon from office over his bid to impose martial law.
The country will elect a new president in snap polls on June 3.
