Police were considering widening their investigation into a sex-for-influence scandal Friday as new names are making the list of influential figures allegedly involved.

“We can question other figures if they are suspected of having some connection with the scandal. We’ve secured testimonies from some women who claim they were made to provide sexual services,” a police officer said.

A senior level official at the National Intelligence Service was newly added to the list of “guests” having allegedly been invited to a luxury villa in Wonju, Gangon Province where sex was provided.

Yun Jung-cheon, the villa owner who videoed the activities in 2010, reportedly has known the NIS official for years. The spy agency declined to comment on the allegations.

Police sent the recording to the National Forensic Service to identify the man captured on it. The three minute clip was of a man having sex with a woman.

Witnesses said Kim Hak-eui, the vice justice minister who offered to resign from his post on Thursday as a result of the scandal, was the man on the video. Kim denied all allegations.

Investigators are focusing on finding out whether the sexual services were provided in return for favors.

The list of people allegedly invited to the villa is getting longer, including high-ranking government officials, prosecutors, judges, general hospital heads, journalists and celebrities.

Starting from 2008, Yun’s invited people to the villa for the weekend and some of them reportedly had sex with women procured by Yun, according to the police.

Police believed that Yun made sex tapes of five to six people among some 30 visitors to blackmail them.
