The captain of the sunken South Korean ferry has been charged with manslaughter, reports say.

韩国世越号沉船船长因过失杀人罪被起诉。
 
Lee Joon-seok, 68, is accused of leaving the ship as it was sinking while telling passengers to stay put, reports Yonhap news agency.
 
He was among the first to be rescued by coast guards at the scene.
 
The Sewol ferry disaster on 16 April killed 281 passengers, most of whom were high school students. Another 23 are still missing.
 
Besides Mr Lee, three crew members - the chief engineer, the chief mate and the second mate - are also being charged with manslaughter. If convicted, they could face life imprisonment1.
 
"The [four people charged] escaped before the passengers, leading to grave casualties," prosecutor2 Ahn Sang-don told journalists. 
 
Prosecutors3 have indicted4 another 11 crew members for negligence5
 
Only 172 passengers survived the sinking of the ferry, including 22 of the 29 crew members.
 
 
The authorities have also arrested several people who were not on the ferry at the time of sinking. 
 
These include five officials of the ferry owner, Chonghaejin Marine7 Company, and an employee of a private safety device inspection8 company. 
 
The latter is suspected of conducting poor inspections9 of the ferry's safety equipment.
 
South Korea, meanwhile, is looking to reform its safety and emergency response system in the wake of the ferry's sinking.
 
President Park Geun-hye said on Tuesday that the government would soon release details of this move, said Yonhap.
 
She has previously10 apologised for the way the government handled the incident, amid questions over the initial rescue effort.
 
Following the recent death of a civilian11 rescue diver, Seoul also plans to provide psychological help for rescue workers "suffering from physical and mental agony", said local media.
 
It comes amid reports the ship, submerged for nearly a month, has begun to deteriorate12, making it even more difficult for divers13 to search for bodies.
 
Officials said that divers had spotted14 walls "getting weaker and about to collapse15". Rescue workers are now plotting new routes through the hull16.
 
Earlier reports said that some bodies had floated away from the ship, prompting workers to deploy17 nets around the site.
