Jeju Air offices raided by investigators
South Korean police raided the offices of Jeju Air and the operator of Muan International Airport as they continue to investigate the deadly plane crash.
A Jeju Air Boeing 737 crashed at the airport killing 179 people.
Investigators searched the offices of the airport operator and Jeju Air offices in Seoul.
Jeju Air’s CEO has been ordered not to leave the country.
A police officer said maintenance documents and papers relating to the airport operations were seized.
Jeju Air said it is fully cooperating with the police.
Investigators are looking at the design and position of the embankment at the end of the runway which the plane slammed into.
“As there’s great public concern about the same aircraft model involved in the accident, relevant organisations must conduct a thorough inspection of operation maintenance, education, and training,” South Korea’s acting President Choi Sang-mok said.
