Wife of Korean Air chief summoned over abuse allegations

South Korean police Monday summoned the wife of Korean Air chairman Cho Yang-ho to question her about allegations she abused and assaulted employees. Lee Myung-hee has been accused of physically or verbally abusing more than 10 former and current employees of Cho's Hanjin conglomerate, the parent of Korean Air. Lee said she felt "sorry for causing troubles" after arriving at a Seoul police agency for questioning Monday. The Cho family has been under mounting public criticism after company employees alleged they were subjected to mistreatment and tantrums. South Korean authorities are also looking into suspicions that the Cho family, including Cho Yang-ho, evaded taxes and used airline services to smuggle luxury goods. <br/>
