Prosecution again rejects arrest warrant request for Hybe chairman

SEOUL, May 7 (Yonhap) -- Prosecutors said Thursday they have again rejected a police request for an arrest warrant for Bang Si-hyuk, chairman and founder of K-pop powerhouse Hybe, citing a lack of supplementary investigation into his alleged unfair stock trading case.

Police had refiled the warrant request for Bang, who is accused of unfair stock trading, after prosecutors rejected their initial request last month, citing insufficient evidence.
