Former South Korea President Goes Through Interrogation in Few Days

The special counsel investigating an influence-peddling scandal centered on President Park Geun-hye is seeking to interrogate her face-to-face this week. It will be the first-ever prosecution inquiry of a sitting South Korean president if it is carried out as planned, officials said Sunday. 
Independent Counsel Park Young-soo is in talks with the president's lawyers with a plan to hold the interrogation of the president sometime between Wednesday and Friday, according to officials from the special investigation team."If the face-to-face interrogation can be carried out, it will be on a date between Wednesday and Friday," an official on the independent counsel team said. 
"The final schedule will be fixed in the very near future." Last Friday, the special prosecutor team attempted to search the presidential office Cheong Wa Dae, but was denied entry on the ground of state confidentiality concerns, according to Yonhab News Agency. 
President Park has, however, been receptive to the possibility of in-person questioning. 
The location is likely to be either inside Cheong Wa Dae or a government estate outside the presidential residence. It would mark the first time ever for a sitting South Korean president to be interrogated by law enforcement authorities if the plan is carried out as planned. President Park is expected to be interrogated, however the special counsel team didn't announce whither it will be a public or private investigation.
