South Korea Prosecutors Seek Detention Warrant for Ousted President Park

South Korean prosecutors said on Monday they will seek a detention warrant for ousted President Park Geun-hye, who has been accused of taking bribes from big businesses.


Park, 65, became South Korea's first democratically elected president to be removed from office when a constitutional court upheld her parliamentary impeachment this month. Park denies any wrong doing.


Last week, Park was interviewed by prosecutors for 14 hours, finally leaving early Wednesday.
