Opposition leader spared arrest

Prosecutor General Lee One-seok arrives for work at the Supreme Public Prosecutors Office in Seoul on Sept. 27, 2023, after a court rejected an arrest warrant sought for Lee Jae-myung, leader of the main opposition Democratic Party. The prosecution filed for an arrest warrant for Lee over alleged breach of trust, bribery and other charges stemming from his time as mayor of Seongnam, south of Seoul, years ago in connection with a scandal-ridden land development project and his alleged involvement in a company's illegal cash remittance to North Korea.
