SEOUL, South Korea – Former South Korean President Roh Moo-hyun has died after a fall while mountain climbing, a news report said Saturday.

Yonhap news agency quoted police as saying that Roh died after falling down a mountain while hiking with an aide. Police could not immediately confirm the report.

Roh suffered severe head injuries and died after being transported from his hometown of Gimhae to a hospital in the southern city of Busan, the report said.

Police were trying to confirm whether the fall was an accident or if he possibly committed suicide, it said.

Roh has been under investigation in a bribery scandal over allegations that he took more than $6 million from a businessman while in office. He served as South Korea's president from 2003 to 2008.

:O Oh my gosh.

Why would they only say that other than an accident it was a possible suicide? Someone could have pushed him just as easily.

Considering the bribery case and South Korean honor mentality suicide actually seems pretty likely cause.

that sucks, wow :(

i think it's kind of ridiculous to assume it may have been suicide though.. idk what goes through their heads but surely there are easier ways to do it than "falling" down a mountain.

Holy crap. Out of all the suicides, this one really takes the cake. *shakes head* Irony. Canada's ex-Prime Minister's on trial for bribery, too.

Geez, what the hell is with all the suicide!? *shakes head*
