To another ex-president in deep legal trouble.
Prosecutors have requested a freeze on former President Lee Myung-bak's assets, a day after he was indicted on corruption charges.
The request, filed at a Seoul court on Tuesday,... seeks to bar him from selling his house, industrial land or other properties worth more than ten-point-four million U.S. dollars,... the same as the amount of bribes he's accused of recieving.
Lee, who was in office from 2008 to 2013, was indicted on Monday on 16 charges including bribery, abuse of power and embezzlement.
He's the nation's fourth ex-president to be arrested and put on trial for corruption.
