You're mistake is in thinking that circumstantial evidence isn't enough. With enough of that, many juries judge someone guilty. Beyond reasonable doubt is reached if so much circumstantial evidence is stacked up that it's much harder to believe the case isn't true. That's what's gonna happen in this case.
Yashiro did several strange things he cannot explain, like taking Satoru to the roof on a rainy day and using a secret route to do so. On the other hand, Satoru and company can easily explain each and every part of their plan. Well, except Satoru trying to wheel himself off the roof. He can simply say that Yashiro pushed him off, and he was lucky that the phone call that got cut told his allies enough to bring that bag there at that time.
The case isn't airtight, but Yashiro isn't winning this unless all of the jury are blind.
EDIT:
I almost forgot that Yashiro was actually dumb enough to admit to Satoru foiling his plans 15 years ago BEFORE he took his celphone, so I wouldn't be surprised if his words got recorded. Even if they didn't, the person on the other line can easily testify to the conversation. So yeah, case closed.
