បន្ទប់ពិសោធន៍ Terraform ស្ថាបនិក ដូកុន‘s aide, Yoo Mo, has been ចាប់ខ្លួន by South Korean officials for fraud and market manipulation. At the same time, the country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs បានផ្ដល់ឱ្យ Kwon 14 days to return his passport, according to local news reports.
Yoo Mo was arrested on Oct. 6. He was the Head of General Affairs at Terraform Labs and is considered a key aide of Kwon.
Mo is the first individual arrested in the ongoing Terraform Labs ការស៊ើបអង្កេត.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued the latest warrant on Oct. 5 and requested Kwon to return his passport to a passport office or diplomatic mission abroad. The warrant states that if Kwon fails to do so, the Ministry will invalidate Kwon’s passport in accordance with article 13 of the passport act.
Yoo Mo’s arrest
The Seoul Southern District Prosecutor’s Office’s Financial and Securities Crime Unit released an arrest warrant for Mo on Oct. 5. One day later, on Oct. 6, Mo was arrested in South Korea, where he was living in hiding.
South Korean authorities claim that Mo “faked” a market by deceiving the community as if coin transactions were actively taking place. He also used bots to inflate prices to make it look like the active trading volume was high.
Mo’s name was in the initial arrest ដីកា for Do Kwon, which includes four other people besides Kwon and Mo.
Updates on the case
The Terra-Luna case started soon after the TerraUSD (USTC) lost its peg in early May and led to the collapse of the Terra (LUNA) ecosystem. This collapse also initiated the ត្រជាក់បំផុត រដូវរងានៅក្នុងប្រវត្តិសាស្រ្ត crypto ។
The collapse became a legal dispute after Kwon was accused of ដក $80 million per month from the Terra project, which added to nearly 2.7 ពាន់លាន $.
South Korea has been on the case since day one and has been ស្នើសុំ Kwon’s return and collaboration with the investigation. Kwon, on the other hand, while denying being on the run, hasn’t made any attempts to succumb to Korea’s requests. Instead, he lawyered up.
After Korea asked for Interpol’s help in searching for Kwon, Interpol released a red warrant on Sept. 26, obligating law enforcement worldwide to locate and arrest Kwon. Terraform Labs បានទទួលស្គាល់ the arrest warrant as “unfair” while not disclosing Kwon’s location.
On Oct. 5, South Korean officials detected and បង្កក $39.66 million that belonged to Kwon, which was held in two exchanges, KuCoin and ផ្នែកបន្ថែម OKX. Kwon responded by saying he doesn’t use the exchanges as he doesn’t have time to trade and blamed South Korean authorities for using his money to get rid of the opposition party.
