java.lang.VerifyError: Verifier rejected class. Code working fine in debug mode, but not throwing this error in release mode

Please help on this error.Below is error logcat:

Caused by: java.lang.VerifyError: Verifier rejected class edu.mit.jwi.morph.SimpleStemmer: java.util.List edu.mit.jwi.morph.SimpleStemmer.getNounCollocationRoots(java.lang.String) failed to verify: java.util.List edu.mit.jwi.morph.SimpleStemmer.getNounCollocationRoots(java.lang.String): [0x50] register v6 has type Reference: java.lang.Object but expected Precise Reference: java.lang.String

Faced the same issue, I was using
implementation 'org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-coroutines-core:1.3.'
implementation 'org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-coroutines-android:1.3.9'
I degraded the corountine to
implementation 'org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-coroutines-core:1.3.6'
implementation 'org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-coroutines-android:1.3.6'
and it worked.
It seems version 1.3.9 has some bugs according to kotlin documentation
If it happend to coroutines on Android, revert coroutines lib to 1.3.6 works for me.
It seems that there is VerifyError bug in android coroutines lib version 1.3.7-1.3.8, and fixed after 1.4.0.
Details see below link:
https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines/issues/2049
https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines/issues/2041
Downgrading dependencies did not work for me.
Remove @JvmStatic
If you create a suspend function be sure that you are not also using the @JvmStatic annotation for this method.
Doing so will definitely throw this error.
