South Korea's police chief admitted on Tuesday the authority had failed to prevent crowd surge during the festivities in Seoul.

Thousands of South Korean citizens gathered in downtown Seoul to hold candlelight vigils for the victims of the crowd crush last week.
The citizens also criticized the South Korean government for the lack of proper guidelines for the disaster and failure to manage the crowd on the night of the crush.
It has been a week since the tragedy, in which more than 150 people lost their lives.

Investigators raid Seoul police over deadly crowd surge

Halloween stampede: Central agency raids Seoul police for duty failure

Raids surfaced a day after  the national agency acknowledged Seoul police's failure to act for hours despite receiving at least 11 emergency calls from pedestrians.

Raids surfaced a day after &nbsp;the national agency acknowledged Seoul police's failure to act for hours despite receiving at least 11 emergency calls from pedestrians.

South Korea's National Police Agency has raided local police departments in the capital, Seoul, and the city's Yongsan district office as it investigates whether official ineptitude contributed to a deadly crowd surge that killed 156 people in the neighbourhood of Itaewon.
The raids came after the national agency acknowledged that Seoul police failed to act for hours despite receiving at least 11 emergency calls from pedestrians warning about a swelling crowd of Halloween revelers getting out of control ahead of the crush on Saturday in a narrow alley near Hamilton Hotel.
The national agency said members of its special investigation unit were retrieving documents and other materials from the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency and Yongsan's police station, district office and fire department and other offices. Local officials and police have faced sharp questions about why they didn't employ crowd controls or sufficient personnel in the small nightlife district despite anticipating a crowd of 100,000 following the easing of COVID-19 restrictions in recent months.
National police chief Yoon Hee Keun also acknowledged Tuesday that its initial investigations found that police officers failed to effectively handle calls notifying authorities about the potential danger of the crowd gathering in Itaewon.
Yoon said police have launched an intense internal probe into the officers' handling of the emergency calls and other issues, including the on-the-spot response to the crowd surge in Itaewon that night.
South Korea's interior minister and emergency office chief, the Seoul mayor and the head of the Yongsan ward office, which governs Itaewon, have all offered public apologies.
As of Wednesday, 156 people were confirmed as dead and 157 were being treated for injuries after they were trampled in a crowd surge centered in a narrow alley that runs between the hotel and a dense row of storefronts.

A team of police officers and government forensic experts arrived in Seoul&rsquo;s Itaewon neighborhood on Monday to conduct a joint investigation in the area following a deadly crowd surge in which more than 150 died, according to local media reports.
South Korean police are investigating what caused the surge during Halloween festivities in Seoul over the weekend in the country&rsquo;s worst disasters in years, as President Yoon Suk Yeol and other residents paid respects to the dead at temporary mourning sites.
Saturday&rsquo;s deadly crowd surge happened at a sloped, narrow alley in Itaewon, a popular nightlife district, with witnesses and survivors recalling a &ldquo;hell-like&rdquo; chaos of people falling on each other &ldquo;like dominoes."
They say the entire Itaewon area was extremely jammed with slow-moving vehicles and partygoers clad in Halloween costumes, making it impossible for rescuers and ambulances to reach the site in time.
Police launched a 561-member task force to delve into details of the crush, the Interior and Safety Ministry said in a release.

They were also interviewing witnesses to find exactly when and where the crowd surge started and how it developed, according to the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency.
