Prison terms are handed to two close aides of Park Geun-hye... on charges of taking illicit funds from the National Intelligence Service and delivering them to the former South Korean President.
The Seoul Central District Court sentenced Lee Jae-man..., the ex-presidential secretary for general affairs, to 18 months.
2 and a half year sentence was handed to her secretary for public relations Ahn Bong-geun.
Another former presidential secretary Jeong Ho-seong... was sentenced to 10 months in jail but with 2 years of probation.
The court ruled the 3-point-1 million US dollars they took from the nation's top intel agency cannot be seen as bribes, but as a misappropriation of state funds.
