Friday, June 21, 2002 Police guard stabbed chief

BEI HU

The chairman of China Venture Capital, the firm at the centre of an alleged 5.4 billion yuan (about HK$5 billion) stock manipulation scheme in China, has been placed under police protection in hospital after being stabbed in Shenzhen on Tuesday.

China Venture Capital was renamed Shenzhen Kondarl in October last year.

Mainland media yesterday speculated whether the incident was linked to the trial of eight defendants over the alleged rigging of the share price of China Venture Capital between August 1999 and February 2000.

These Chinese are obviously much further along in effective enforcement of criminal business behavior than the SEC and Congress. steve
