Police look into deaths of Park Geun-hye's two relatives
SEOUL, Sept. 7 (Yonhap) -- Two relatives of Park Geun-hye, a powerful presidential aspirant from the ruling Grand National Party (GNP), were found dead in what was presumed to be an internal family fight, police said Wednesday.
A paternal nephew of Park, who is the a daughter of late former president Park Chung-hee, was found by a neighbor lying dead in a parking lot near Mount Bukhan in northern Seoul early Tuesday morning, Gangbuk Police Station said. The 50-year-old man was bleeding from several stabs wounds to his face, the police said.
Only a few kilometers from the scene, police found the body of a cousin of Park's dead nephew. The 52-year old man seems to have committed suicide by hanging himself from a tree, the police said.
After discovering a weapon near the suicide site, police are investigating a possible link between the two deaths.
"We are looking into a possible relation between the two simultaneous deaths," the police said, adding one is likely a suicide and the other a possible murder. Autopsies will be conducted early Wednesday, the police said.
