South Korean businessman Tongsun Park faces 36 federal corruption charges in an indictment unsealed today, listing former Rep. Richard Manna as an unindicted coconspirator and naming several current and former lawmakers as recipients of Park bribes. Atty. Gen. Bell said he will urge President Carter to seek Park’s return from Seoul. Hanna aided in selecting targets and parceling funds, while Park remains a fugitive.

Park allegedly paid lawmakers, including a $10,000 sum to Edwin Edwards’s wife in 1971, with more details to come as the investigation continues.
