Long arm of law catches up with Korean fugitive at NAIA

AFTER more than a decade of hiding, the long arm of the law finally caught up with a South Korean fugitive at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) while attempting to leave the country via an Asiana Airlines flight to Seoul.

In a report to Immigration Commissioner Norman Tangsingco, the BI's border control and intelligence unit (BCIU) said 40-year-old Yoo Hoon was intercepted last Dec. 18, 2023, while about to board his flight back to Korea.
