[Photo] Rep. Park Deokheum Holds Press Conference to Clarify Allegations

On the 21st, Park Deok-heum, a member of the People Power Party, held a press conference at the National Assembly to explain allegations of preferential treatment in winning construction contracts from supervised institutions. Park is suspected of having won construction contracts worth several billion won from supervised institutions through five family-owned construction companies while serving on the National Assembly's Land, Infrastructure and Transport Committee since 2012. In particular, during the 2015 Seoul City audit, he directly requested Seoul City to adopt construction methods favorable to his family’s companies. / Reporter Yoon Dong-joo doso7@
