[Breaking] Prosecutors additionally indict Yoon Suk Yeol for 'violation of the Improper Solicitation and Graft Act'

[Financial News] Prosecutors additionally indicted former President Yoon Suk Yeol on charges of failing to report that Kim Keon Hee had received a luxury handbag despite knowing about it.
The Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office's Anti-Corruption Investigation Division 3 (Chief Prosecutor Kim Jin-yong) indicted former President Yoon without detention on the 17th on charges of violating the Improper Solicitation and Graft Act.
Former President Yoon is accused of failing to fulfill his reporting obligations under the Improper Solicitation and Graft Act despite knowing that his wife, Kim Keon Hee, had received a luxury handbag related to her official duties.
Prosecutors re-examined the case based on the court testimony of Pastor Choi Jae-young, who handed over the bag, and the fact that the court hearing Kim Keon Hee's case for acceptance of bribes recognized last June that the acceptance of the bag was related to her official duties.
As a result, prosecutors determined that Kim Keon Hee's acceptance of the luxury handbag was related to her official duties under the Improper Solicitation and Graft Act, and that former President Yoon also failed to fulfill his duty to report despite being aware of this.
