Prosecutors on Sunday indicted the chairman of a local bakery giant with physical detention on charges of coercing bakers to quit their membership with a militant umbrella labor organization. The Seoul Central District Prosecutors Office indicted 18 individuals, including SPC Group Chairman Hur Young-in, over their alleged involvement in unfair labor practices at the company. Hur and the others are accused of urging some 570 union members at an SPC subsidiary to quit their union membership with the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions, one of the country's two major umbrella unions that's considered more militant than the Federation of Korean Trade Unions. The Seoul Central District Court issued a formal arrest warrant for the 74-year-old on April 5, citing concerns about him attempting to destroy evidence. Source: Yonhap News Agency
