Samsung Electronics Chairman Jay Y. Lee was found not guilty of accounting fraud and stock manipulation in a major legal ruling.
A Seoul appeals court cleared Samsung Electronics Chairman Jay Y. Lee of charges related to accounting fraud and stock manipulation. The case revolved around a 2015 merger, which prosecutors argued was intended to strengthen Lee’s control over the tech giant.
The ruling has underscored ongoing legal challenges for Lee, who is facing increasing scrutiny regarding his ability to lead Samsung Electronics—the world's leading memory chip and smartphone manufacturer, struggling with fierce competition and sluggish stock performance.
Following the decision, Lee’s lawyer commented, "It took a long time. We hope this ruling will allow defendants to focus on their work moving forward." Lee did not address reporters’ questions as he exited the courthouse.
It remains uncertain whether the prosecution will appeal the verdict to the Supreme Court.
