The Seoul Central District Court acquitted a former McDonald's Korea executive director and two others on charges of lying about the number of tainted patties in its inventory.
The McDonald's executive director and two former officials of a burger patty supplier were charged with obstructing a public officer’s duty by lying that there weren't any leftover beef patties after some were tainted in June 2016.
At that time, there were over 45 million tainted beef patties in the inventory.
The McDonald's official was earlier convicted and fined 5 million won.
Their indictments came after a group of local consumers filed complaints claiming they or their families suffered from hemolytic uremic syndrome after eating McDonald's burgers served with undercooked patties.
