Seventy Park Geun-hye loyalists, including 67 members of the Liberty Korea Party (LKP), have submitted a petition to prosecutors demanding the release of the ex-president. The petition was submitted to the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office on Apr. 24. It cited health reasons for demanding Park’s release, saying such treatment of a former president is unprecedented and unfair. It also compared the South Korean public’s attitude toward Park’s detention to the silence of Germans during the Nazi persecution of the Jews, likening Park’s imprisonment to the detainment of Jews at Auschwitz.
