The police also sent Kim Ki-yu, former chairman of the Management Council, to the same charges as Lee.
An official from Taekwang Group said, "The investigation began when former chairman Kim reported to the police to pass on his criminal acts to former chairman Lee, and claimed that the criminal charges Lee received were committed by former chairman Kim."
