Seoul –
The court is responsible for verifying the bombing of South Korean President Park, said Friday that she would not be asked to appear in court.
But the Constitutional Court said Park’s close friend Choi Soon-Sil, the center of the corruption scandal known as “Rasputin”, triggered the fall of the president and had to file an interrogation on January 10.
The National Assembly earlier this month passed a motion asking the court to call the park and ask her directly.
“The request was refused,” the court said.
The court has 180 days to consider the parliamentary initiative, and in a letter to New Year’s letter, President Park Han-hee says it will “make a decision as soon as possible”.
If the bomb is confirmed, the presidential election must be held within 60 days.
Park is accused of collusion with Choi, the powerful company to tens of millions of dollars to the Choi control suspicious foundation.
Choi has been officially accused of abuse of power and extortion.
