Samsung Update: Tech Giant Headquarters Recently Gets Raided For Political Conspiracy

Samsung is yet in the midst of facing the issues for its exploding smartphones and even appliances yet now another conundrum has occurred. Prosecutors raided the workplace of Samsung Electronics on Tuesday as a major aspect of an examination concerning a presidential cronyism outrage that is engulfing South Korea.

The inquiry of the hardware organization's office in the upmarket Gangnam zone of the capital took after days of claims in household media that Samsung piped a large number of euros into an establishment keep running by a long-lasting companion and "shaman adviser" of President Park Geun-hye.

According to a report by CNN, the prosecutors are looking into whether Samsung is associated with giving as much as $3 million in mystery to bolster the equestrian preparing and Olympic dreams of Choi Soon-sil's 20-year old little girl. Who is Choi? She is a long-lasting companion and counsel to President Park Geun-hye, who's at the focal point of Korea's extending misuse of power outrage.

Choi is at present in prison on charges of manhandling of influence and misrepresentation, said to have such wide control over state issues in spite of no official positions that is she's being called "the influence behind the honored position." Prosecutors trust she advanced herself to the tune of millions by hawking her closeness to and impact over Park.

President Park Geun-hye, according to Yonhap News Agency, has issued two apologies over the scandal since late last month, however, failed to allay the public outrage. Her endorsement appraisals dove a week ago to 5 percent and 11.5 percent, the most reduced figures ever aggregated by Gallup Korea and Realmeter, individually, the surveyors said. The past Realmeter record was held by late president Roh Moo-hyun, whose endorsement rating once floated at 12.6 percent. A huge number of nationals rampaged throughout the weekend, requesting her resignation. Another huge rally is booked to occur in downtown Seoul on Saturday.
