Jeju officer arrested for allegedly falsely closing missing-person cases

A South Korean police officer in Jeju Island is under investigation for allegedly falsifying missing-person reports. Police allege the officer prematurely closed at least two cases of missing persons, who were later found dead on the island. The scandal has triggered a review of closed missing-persons cases by police agencies across the country, and a call for increased police accountability by South Korean President Lee Jae Myung.
