SEOUL, Aug. 27 (Yonhap) -- Prime Minister Han Seong-sook called for measures Thursday to reform the way police handle missing person cases and to overhaul the agency's "organizational culture" amid public outrage over revelations an officer prematurely closed at least two cases with false reports the victims have been confirmed safe.
