Defense ministry's legal official under probe

Yoo Jae-eun (C), a legal affairs official at the defense ministry, arrives at the Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials in Gwacheon, south of Seoul, on April 29, 2024, to undergo a probe into her alleged interference in a Marine death inquiry. The former top investigator of the Marines, Col. Park Jung-hun, has filed a complaint against Yoo and another defense ministry official, accusing them of exerting undue influence in his probe involving Marine Cpl. Chae, who was swept away by a torrent in a stream during a search operation for civilians missing amid heavy rains in July 2023. (Yonhap)
