South Korean fugitive nabbed in Boracay

 A South Korean wanted for embezzling money in his country has been arrested by operatives of the Boracay Tourist Action Center here.

Kim Jinsoo was collared in this resort island for a different case, though. He failed to pay the resort where he had been staying, said PO3 Christopher Mendoza.

“As soon as he was arrested, we checked his background. We discovered that he was a fugitive in South Korea,” said Mendoza.

The policeman did not identify the resort that complained against Jinsoo but said the South Korean’s bill reached P21,000.

Jinsoo will be deported to South Korea.

When converted to Philippine peso, the money that the suspect allegedly embezzled there reached some P125 million, said Mendoza.

Park Yong Jeung, consul and police attaché of the Embassy of the Republic of South Korea, confirmed that Jinsoo faces an embezzlement case in their country.
