South Korea's disgraced former president Park Geun-hye was arrested and jailed Friday over high-profile corruption allegations that already ended her tumultuous four-year rule and prompted an election to find her successor.
因备受瞩目的贪腐指控被罢黜的韩国前总统朴槿惠于3月31日遭逮捕和拘押。该案断送了其动荡的4年执政生涯，也促使该国举行大选寻找其继任者。

首尔中央地方法院3月31日凌晨就朴槿惠受贿、滥权和泄漏政府机密等指控(charges of bribery, abuse of authority, and leaking government secrets)对其签发了逮捕令(approve an arrest warrant)。这一决定是在接近9小时的庭审(a nearly nine-hour court hearing)后作出的。朴槿惠成为韩国宪政史上第一位被罢免的民选总统(the first democratically elected leader to be thrown out of office)，也是继卢泰愚、全斗焕后第三位遭拘押的韩国前总统(the third former president to be jailed)。

法官称，考虑到检方提出的朴槿惠涉嫌罪名以及证据被销毁的风险(risk of evidence being destroyed)，法院对其予以批捕。目前，朴槿惠已被移送至首尔拘留中心。韩媒报道称，在被正式起诉前，她最多可被关押20天(be held for up to 20 days before being formally charged)。在此期间，检方将继续调查其涉嫌与长期闺蜜崔顺实共谋(collude with her longtime confidante Choi Soon-sil)向大企业施压(pressure big businesses)要求赞助两个基金会的指控。如果朴槿惠接受大型财团老板贿赂并提供回报(receive bribes from bosses of big conglomerate in return for favors)的罪名成立，她可能面临10年以上监禁(face more than 10 years in prison)。
