Listen

A cameraman waits for prosecutors to finish their search and seizure operation, Tuesday, at Dongyang University in Yeongju, North Gyeongsang Province, where Justice Minister nominee Cho Kuk's wife works as a professor. Prosecutors confiscated her computer hard disk and documents over allegations that Cho's family made illicit investments in a private equity fund and helped his daughter get favorable treatment in admissions, despite Cho's denial of the allegations during a press conference the previous day.
