Kim Keon-hee Sentence Increased To 4 Years

ABC NewsRadio AU Seoul 14d14d Impact 6

A court in Seoul found a woman guilty of stock manipulation and bribery. Public opinion polls indicate President Trump's approval ratings have dropped to their lowest level since his re-election. The court also ordered a collection of 20.94 million won. The sentence was increased from the initial 1 year and 8 months due to the reversal of the Deutsche Motors stock manipulation charges. The court acknowledged the use of Kim's funds in the initial trial. The court determined that Kim must be viewed as having participated in price manipulation activities. The ruling, delivered by the 15th Criminal Division, increased the sentence from the initial trial. Kim left the courtroom with her head bowed but stated she would follow principles and file a formal appeal immediately.

The ruling, delivered by the 15th Criminal Division, increased the sentence from the initial trial. Kim left the courtroom with her head bowed but stated she would follow principles and file a formal appeal immediately. The first instance court had previously ruled that while Kim managed an account containing 2 billion won, it was difficult to conclude she directly participated in the stock manipulation. The court found she provided 25 securities accounts to price manipulation forces following a recommendation from former Deutsche Motors Chairman Kwon Woo-soo in October 2010. She reportedly agreed to share 40% of the profits and engaged in matched orders at specific times designated by manipulators. Allegations regarding the commissioning of public opinion polls were dismissed as there was no evidence of consultation or coordination.
