JAKARTA - ChoiEun-soon, the mother-in-law of South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol was arrested by the police on suspicion of counterfeiting cases, as reported by local media.
As reported by ANTARA, from Anadolu, Friday, July 21, Choi Eun-soon's arrest came after an appeals court, which cited a "heavy crime", passed a one-year sentence for "forgering financial documents used in the land purchase agreement" in 2013, according to the Seoul-based Yonhap news agency.
Choi filed an appeal against the verdict in the Uijeongbu appeal court, 22 kilometers northeast of Seoul.
However, the appeals court confirmed the president's in-laws had issued a "fake bank balance" sheet to purchase land in Seongnam in southern Seoul between April and October 2013.

The fake document shows Choi depositing 34.7 billion won (around Rp404 billion) into a bank account. The 76-year-old woman pleaded not guilty.
Choi was sentenced to one year in prison in December 2021 by a low court in the same city, in a similar case. However, at that time he was not detained.
Choi was also accused of taking state insurance allowances to manage unregistered elderly hospitals. After being sentenced to three years in prison, he was later acquitted of a number of charges by the Seoul High Court last year.
