Police said Wednesday they raided the headquarters of Hyundai Engineering & Construction Co. in an investigation into allegations that the company offered bribes to owners of properties for which it had bid to gain the sole rights for housing reconstruction.

The white collar unit of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency sent 37 officers to the company's main office in Jongno, central Seoul, to obtain evidence.
