SEOUL, Dec 14 (Reuters) - South Korea's prosecutors are
seeking a four-year jail term for Lotte Group chief Shin
Dong-bin, the corporate group's spokesman said by telephone on
Thursday.
Prosecutors also demanded 25 years in jail for Choi
Soon-sil, who was indicted last year on charges of forcing
conglomerates such as Samsung Group and Lotte Corp to donate
millions to foundations, Yonhap news said.
