During the grilling, prosecutors focused on Park's alleged involvement in charges of bribery, abuse of power and the leakage of state secrets. A total of 13 charges were levied against her.
Park, 65, has been accused of colluding with her decades-long friend Choi Soon-sil, who is now in custody, to receive tens of millions of U.S. dollars in bribes from Samsung Electronics Vice Chairman Lee Jae-yong, the heir apparent of Samsung Group who was also taken into custody.
The kickbacks are suspected of being offered in return for helping Lee inherit the overall management control of the country's biggest family-controlled conglomerate from his ailing father Chairman Lee Kun-hee who has been hospitalized for heart attack for almost three years.
Park was identified as an accomplice to Choi in helping solicit tens of millions of U.S. dollars from scores of large business conglomerates to establish two noNPRofit foundations Choi used for personal gains.
Choi has been charged with meddling in state affairs behind the scenes by receiving government documents on a regular basis delivered by one of Park's former presidential secretaries.
