Hyung-soo Lee, nicknamed Hugo, CEO of South Korean firm Haru Invest, was stabbed Wednesday during his fraud trial at the Seoul Southern District Court. A man aged between 40 and 50 attacked Lee in the neck, according to Reuters. Lee was taken to hospital with minor injuries and police arrested the attacker. In February, three executives at Harrow Invest were arrested for allegedly stealing 1.1 trillion won ($828 million) in digital currency from about 16,000 customers. The company suspended withdrawals and deposits in June last year, citing problems with its service partners. It also laid off about 100 employees at the time.
