SEOUL (Reuters) – South Korea’s Prime Minister Han Duck-soo said on Tuesday the absence of “institutional support” measures for crowd management was one of the causes behind the deadly crush that killed more than 150 party-goers in central Seoul over the weekend.
Speaking at a news conference, he said the ongoing investigation over the disaster will also cover whether relevant institutions’ on-site responses were adequate.
