SEOUL, A Seoul court on Tuesday rejected arrest warrants for two former managers of South Korea's Kia Tigers professional baseball team over bribery charges.The Seoul Central District Court made the decision following a hearing attended by Kim Jong-kook, former manager of the baseball team, and Jang Jung-suk, former general manager of the same team.There seem to be no concerns about the possible destruction of evidence and no need for their arrest for investigations, a court judge said.The Seoul Central District Prosecutors office sought the warrants last Wednesday to arrest them.It marks the first arrest warrant sought for a sitting professional baseball team manager on corruption suspicions.They appeared for the hearing at the court in the morning but remained tight-lipped in the face of reporters' questions.Kim and Jang are suspected of receiving 100 million won (US$75,200) and tens of millions of won, respectively, from a coffee chain in return for helping the business sign a sponsorship deal with the Kia Tigers. Jang is additionally accused of asking a free agent player for a kickback during salary negotiations last year.Following a two-hour hearing, they were again confronted with reporters asking numerous questions about their criminal charges and intentions to apologize, but neither of them said a single word.The Tigers terminated their deal with Kim on Monday and Jang was fired from the team last year.Source: Yonhap News Agency
