More than 600 people, including relatives of 250 high school students killed in the sinking, marched across Seoul for two days to protest what they say is the government’s attempt to influence the investigation. The event was held ahead of the emotional first anniversary of the disaster, which left more than 300 dead or missing after the overloaded Sewol ferry sank off the country’s southeast on April 16, 2014.
