Seoul: Comedian Park Na-rae was referred to the prosecution on charges of verbal abuse and physical assault against her former managers, police said Friday. Park has been embroiled in a legal battle since late last year when these allegations first surfaced.

According to Yonhap News Agency, Park has also filed a countercomplaint against her former managers, claiming that they threatened her with false allegations and demanded money. The case has drawn significant public attention, leading to Park announcing in December last year that she would suspend all broadcasting activities amidst the escalating allegations.

In addition to the charges of verbal abuse and physical assault, Park faces further allegations of receiving unauthorized injections and proxy prescriptions from an unlicensed practitioner. The ongoing investigations are expected to reveal more details about the case and its implications for Park's career.
