Woo Byung-woo, who served as former President Park's senior secretary for civil affairs, is accused of a string of corruption allegations, including that he abetted alleged wrongdoings committed by Park's friend Choi Soon-sil.

The prosecution said its officials visited the presidential office and received relevant documents, instead of entering inside the compound. (Yonhap)
