Police Forward Former Lawmaker Yoo Seung-min to Prosecutors Over Alleged Preferential Hiring of Daughter

Former lawmaker Yoo Seung-min has been referred to the prosecution over allegations of preferential treatment in the appointment of his daughter, Yoo Dam, as a professor at Incheon National University.

The Anti-Corruption and Economic Crime Investigation Unit of the Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency announced today (October 16) that it has forwarded four individuals, including former lawmaker Yoo and Incheon National University President Lee In-jae, to the prosecution without detention on charges including obstruction of business.

Former lawmaker Yoo is accused of interfering with the university's recruitment process by making unlawful solicitation during the hiring process last semester, when his daughter, Yoo Dam, was appointed as a professor in the Department of Trade at the College of Global Economics and Business at Incheon National University.
