A Seoul court on Wednesday denied a bail request by Hur Young-in, the chairman of the bakery giant SPC Group, who is currently standing trial in detention on charges of coercing bakers to quit their labor union.The 74-year-old bakery mogul was arrested in April and has since been standing trial in detention on charges of pressuring some 570 union members at an SPC subsidiary to quit their union between early 2021 and mid-2022 over their labor activities critical of the company.The Seoul Central District Court on Wednesday dismissed the bail request from Hur, citing "sufficient reasons" to believe he might try to destroy evidence.The decision is expected to keep the chairman in detention at least until October, given the maximum six-month detention period allowed for the first trial.Source: Yonhap News Agency
