President Park has repeatedly blamed political foes for her troubles, saying she was framed.
President Park, who was impeached in December, issued a statement through her lawyer Yoo Yeong-ha rejecting the allegations and denouncing the special prosecutor as "politically biased," South Korea`s Yonhap news agency reported.
The prosecutor confirmed the president is suspected of colluding with Choi to take bribes from Samsung`s Lee in return for business favors.
