The daughter of late Sewol owner Yoo Byung-eun has been arrested three years after fleeing South Korea in the wake of the Sewol ferry sinking.
The Korea Herald said France had agreed to extradite Yoo Sum-na on embezzlement charges.
Her father controlled Cheonghaejin Marine Co, the owner of the ferry that went down in 2014, killing more than 300 people, many of them schoolchildren.
Yoo was detained on a plane at Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris, bound for Incheon.
On arrival in Korea, the 51-year-old was taken to a prosecutors' office to be questioned over financial irregularities relating to the shipping company.
She had refused to be summoned for suspected embezzlement of KRW 49bn ($43.7m) from Cheonghaejin .
He father was the subject of a massive manhunt after the ferry sank, but his badly decomposed body was later found in a field.
