[Asia Economy Reporter Gong Byung-sun] Two finance team employees have been booked on charges of aiding and abetting embezzlement after allegedly turning a blind eye to the embezzlement of about 200 billion won from Ostem Implant's company funds.
On the 25th, the Gangseo Police Station in Seoul announced that it had booked two finance team employees of Ostem Implant on charges of aiding and abetting embezzlement. They were recently investigated by the police as suspects.
According to the police, the two reportedly knew about the actions of Lee Mo (45), who is accused of embezzling 221.5 billion won from Ostem Implant's company funds, but ignored the issue. However, a police official stated, "It is understood that they did not commit embezzlement together with Lee," and added, "No other employees suspected of aiding and abetting embezzlement besides these two have been investigated."
