South Korea: Man crashes digger into prosecutors building to protest against Presidents friend
A 45-year-old man crashed an excavator into the South Korean prosecutors office to protest against the woman at the centre of an influence-peddling scandal gripping the countrys highest office. The woman he was protesting against, Choi Soon-sil, was arrested on allegations she used her friendship with President Park Geun-hye to influence state affairs by gaining access to classified documents and benefited personally through non-profit foundations, officials said. Choi was detained late on 31 October, hours after she had arrived at the office of local prosecutors to answer questions.
