Belgian ambassador's wife claims diplomatic immunity after slapping a Seoul store assistant
CNN
Security footage shows her getting into an altercation with two clothing store staff, after one asked about a jacket she was wearing, believing she might have stolen it.
Ambassador Peter Lescouhier previously apologized on behalf of his wife, Xiang Xueqiu, saying she "might have had her reasons to be angry at the way she was treated in that shop, but committing physical violence is totally unacceptable." "She sincerely regrets it and she wants to offer her apologies in person to the shopkeeper when she gets the opportunity to do so," Lescouhier said in a video uploaded to Instagram last week, adding his wife was "cooperating actively with the police."More Related News
