Ruling party seeks probe of Supreme Court chief

The ruling Democratic Party (DP) decided Tuesday to push for a parliamentary investigation into Supreme Court Chief Justice Cho Hee-dae, with some hardliners calling for his impeachment over allegations, Yonhap and the Korea Times report. The DP's floor spokesperson Jeon Eun-su told reporters the party's lawmakers would pursue the probe. The main opposition People Power Party (PPP) denounced the move, with its floor leader criticizing the decision, according to KBS World. The DP had been considering the investigation since at least October 21, amid internal debate over impeachment, the Korea Times reported earlier.
