Reuters, SEOULA South Korean heiress known for delaying a Korean Air Lines Co flight in 2014 because she was angry at the way she was served nuts has accused her younger brother of disobeying their late father’s will to manage the airline’s parent company together. Heather Cho, a former Korean Air Lines executive whose “nut rage” incident made international headlines, said that her younger brother, Cho Won-tae, was ignoring the wishes of their father, former Korean Air Lines chairman Cho Yang-ho, for “harmony” in the family’s management of Korean Air parent Hanjin Group. Korean Air and budget affiliate Jin Air Co Ltd rose more than 4 percent. Cho Won-tae, Heather Cho and younger sister Emily Cho hold 6.46 percent, 6.43 percent and 6.42 percent of Hanjin Kal shares respectively. Heather Cho and Emily Cho stepped down from their positions at Korean Air in April last year, amid public outrage at their behavior.
