CNN.com - South Korea party leader's face slashed
Topic: Politics and Law 12:53 pm EDT, May 22, 2006

A man wielding a box cutter has attacked the leader of South Korea's main opposition party, slashing her face during a campaign rally.

Park, chairwoman of the Grand National Party, suffered a 10 centimeter (four-inch) cut to her face, will be hospitalized for at least a week and will not be able to speak well for months, said Choi Kyung-deuk, spokesman for Severance Hospital.

He told police that he was "upset at a society that lacks democracy," said Han Jin-ho, head of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency.

"In a democratic society, any acts of terrorism or violence during election campaigns cannot be tolerated under any circumstance for whatever reason," Roh said during a Cabinet meeting, according to his office.

Welcome to the world of Korean politics. This Ji guy has a pretty long rap sheet. There is also coverage in The Korean Times.
