미국 법원, 웜비어 부모에 북한 자산 2천만달러 정보공개 결정
Information on roughly 23 million U.S. dollars in frozen North Korean funds at U.S. banks will be opened to the family of Otto Warmbier,... the American college student who died in 2017 after being detained in North Korea.
According to Voice of America, the U.S. District Court for Washington on Monday granted a protective order that orders three banks JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo and Bank of New York Mellon to give the family information on the accounts.
The information includes the account holders' names, addresses, account numbers and the exact amount in each account.
The family may be able to collect the funds as part of compensation, but the court's order to provide the information does not guarantee it, according to the Warmbiers' lawyer.
