The cases against Yoon, former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun and former Defense Intelligence Command chief Noh Sang-won were filed with the police in connection with Yoon's short-lived imposition of martial law in December.
The cases have been transferred to the Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials and the Seoul Central District Prosecutors Office, a police official told reporters without elaborating.
All three men are already standing trial on insurrection charges over the failed martial law bid.
