Samsung Chairman Faces Possible Arrest in South Korea

President Samsung

It does not seem that all the problems have ended for the Korean manufacturer with the Galaxy Note 7 and that hecatomb that caused numerous devices to start catching fire in various parts of the planet. A anus horribilis for this company that has been in the position of joining forces so that the imminent Galaxy S8 can remove those black clouds that have perched on his head.

But it doesn't look like they're going to dissipate so quickly, as things can even get worse when they learn that South Korean prosecutors have announced that they are asking for the warrant to arrest Lee Jae-yong, vice president and leader of the technology giant, on allegations of bribery and other crimes. Apparently, it does seem that those black clouds are going to stay over Samsung for a long time, since this does not look good for the company.

Investigators allege that Lee was involved in the payments made to Choi Soon-sil, an ally of the defendant president of the country for an issue related to $ 17,2 million donated to two foundations created by the aforementioned. It is suspected that Park's confidante, Choi Soon-sil, took advantage of their friendship to drain funds from XNUMX local businesses and spent part of that sum to buy real estate abroad.

A court has yet to approve the order, while Samsung has not released an official response to the request. Even so, it is already clear that the mere intention to arrest Lee would be a very serious damage both him and Samsung itself as a company. It is Lee himself who was ready to take the reins of the company, so if he were removed from that position, his sisters would take control, although with doubts about his leadership since they were not indicated by the father himself. to carry Samsung.

A piece of news you can offer light on the future of Samsung And as we recently learned that a group was being watched to take control of its mobile division, which is much more understood now, good times for Huawei? no?
