Former Woori Holdings Chairman Sohn Tae-seung's arrest warrant for 'unfair loans' was again dismissed.

Sohn Tae-seung, former chairman of Woori Financial Group, who is suspected of being involved in unfair loans by relatives, has once again escaped arrest.

The Seoul Southern District Court also rejected the second arrest warrant, saying that even if the data reinforced by the prosecution after the first arrest warrant was rejected, there was room for dispute over former chairman Sohn's conspiracy.Former chairman

Son is accused of intervening in Woori Bank's illegal lending of more than 40 billion won to a corporation related to his relatives from April 2020 to January this year.

After the court rejected the arrest warrant for former chairman Sohn last month, saying the need for arrest was not recognized, the prosecution conducted a reinforcement investigation over two weeks and attempted to secure new recruits again.
