SEOUL, Sept. 8 (Xinhua) — About 300 workers from the Republic of Korea (ROK) detained in the United States are expected to return home on a special charter flight later this week, Renhap News Agency reported on Monday, citing South Korean Consul General Cho Kie-joon in Washington.
The diplomat said the return date was set for Wednesday, with a chartered plane heading to Jacksonville International Airport in Florida — about a 50-minute bus ride from the detention center in Folkston, Georgia.
On September 4, US immigration authorities raided a factory producing batteries for electric vehicles, where 475 people were detained, including about 300 citizens of Kazakhstan. The factory is operated by a joint venture between Hyundai Motor Group and LG Energy Solution.
Presidential Chief of Staff Kang Hoon-sik said Sunday that negotiations on the release of detained South Korean citizens had been completed, noting that a charter flight would be sent once administrative procedures were completed. –0–
