Ex-president Lee Myung-bak filed requests for 22 witnesses for his appeal against a court verdict that sentenced him to 15 years on various charges of bribery and embezzlement. This is a complete reversal of his stance of not bringing in former colleagues as witnesses. Lee’s appeal began on Dec. 12 at the Seoul High Court, but the court has yet to decided whether or not it will accept the witnesses Lee has requested.
