The prosecution investigating allegations of illegal succession of Samsung's management rights indicted Samsung Electronics Vice Chairman Lee Jae-yong on the 1st. The Economic Crime Division of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office (Chief Prosecutor Lee Bok-hyun) indicted Vice Chairman Lee without detention on charges including unfair trading and market manipulation under the Capital Markets Act, as well as breach of trust. Ten other Samsung officials, including former Samsung Future Strategy Office Chief Choi Ji-sung (Vice Chairman) and former Future Strategy Office Strategy Team Leader Kim Jong-joong (President), were also brought to trial. Vice Chairman Lee's side strongly stated that they cannot accept the prosecution's excessive indictment. The photo shows Samsung Electronics Seocho Building on the day. /Reporter Moon Ho-nam munonam@
