(LEAD) Prosecutors deny targeting previous government officials

   (ATTN: TRIMS lead, throughout)
SEOUL, Dec. 8 (Yonhap) -- Prosecutors said Monday they have no intention of targeting previous government officials even as former President Roh Moo-hyun's brother and his key associate face corruption investigations over the 2006 sale of a brokerage house.

The months-long probe into Roh's elder brother Gun-pyeong and Park Yen-cha, the former president's sponsor and head of shoemaker Taekwang Industry Co., has spurred liberals' accusations that the current conservative government might be seeking revenge.
