South Korea's top court clears Samsung chairman Lee
South Korea's top court has upheld a not guilty verdict for the chairman of Samsung Electronics Jay Y Lee, backing two lower court rulings clearing him of accounting fraud and stock manipulation related to an $US8 billion ($A12 billion) merger in 2015. The Supreme Court's verdict on Thursday permanently removes a long-running legal distraction for Lee as Samsung plays catch-up in a global race to develop cutting-edge AI chips. The Supreme Court upheld an appeals court's ruling dismissing all the charges in the case involving the merger a decade ago between two Samsung affiliates, Samsung C&T and Cheil Industries, which prosecutors said was designed to cement Lee's control of the tech giant. A lower court last year had also cleared Lee of the charges. Samsung's lawyers said they were "sincerely grateful" to the court for its decision and added in a statement that the ruling confirmed that the merger was legal. Samsung Electronics shares were little changed after the ruling, up 1.7 per cent. The Supreme Court ruling was widely expected, but comes at a critical moment for Lee, who has faced mounting questions about his ability to lead Samsung Electronics - the world's top memory chip and smartphone maker - as it grapples with growing competition and playing catch-up in artificial intelligence chips. For nearly a decade, Lee has faced legal challenges, including those from the merger that paved the way for his succession after his father, Lee Kun-hee, had a heart attack in 2014 that left him in a coma.
