Seoul, South Korea: South Korea's former first lady was alleged by prosecutors Monday to have accepted lavish bribes totaling over $200,000, including fine art, jewellery and a handbag, as well as meddling in state affairs.
Kim Keon Hee, the wife of disgraced ex-president Yoon Suk Yeol, was arrested in August and is under investigation for alleged stock manipulation and receiving gifts.
She has also been accused of meddling in parliamentary elections.
In an announcement concluding their investigation, prosecutor Min Joong-ki said South Korea's institutions were "severely undermined by abuses of power" by Kim.
Kim allegedly "illegally intervened in state affairs behind the scenes, beyond the public's view," said prosecutor Kim Hyung-geun.
