A PROBE into South Korea's ferry disaster has heard that warnings over the ship's seaworthiness were ignored, prosecutors said yesterday, as rescuers worked to recover more than 90 people still missing two weeks after it sank.
The confirmed death toll from the accident stood at 210, with 92 unaccounted for, the coastguard said, with divers pushing deeper into the submerged vessel's interior in their search for bodies.
