South Korean police raid Jeju Air and Muan Airport following a deadly crash that killed 179 people, as investigators probe the cause and focus on aircraft maintenance and airport safety.
South Korean police raided Jeju Air and Muan International Airport as part of the investigation into a crash that killed 179 people, the worst aviation disaster in the country's history.
Jeju Air flight 7C2216, en route from Bangkok to Muan, belly-landed and overshot the runway, exploding after hitting an embankment. Two crew members survived, though one was critically injured.
Investigators are examining documents related to the aircraft's operation and the airport's maintenance. The airline's CEO and another official have been banned from leaving the country as potential witnesses.
Questions regarding the crash have focused on the rigid embankment supporting a localizer antenna, which experts believe contributed to the disaster. South Korean officials, alongside the NTSB, FAA, and Boeing, are investigating the cause of the crash, including why the plane's landing gear failed to deploy and the pilot's rushed second landing attempt.
The cockpit voice recorder's audio files will remain private for the investigation.
The South Korean government is also conducting checks on all Boeing 737-800 aircraft in the country. The acting president has urged immediate action if issues are found and called for assistance to the victims' families while cracking down on fake news related to the incident.
