The mayor of Seoul has been found dead after going missing just hours before a 'sexual assault' allegation made by his secretary was due to be revealed on television.  

Police discovered the body of Park Won-soon, 64, in hills in northern Seoul after hundreds of officers scoured the area for more than seven hours following his disappearance on Thursday. 

An officer said his body was found near a restaurant and banquet hall located in the hills.
