Lily Chiang loses bail appeal

19-06-2012

A High Court judge has rejected an application for bail by a former chairwoman of the Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce, Lily Chiang. She's appealing against a three-and-a-half year jail term she was given last year for engineering a HK$3.7 million stocks scam.

She told staff members to trade shares and share options on her behalf in breach of listing rules and was convicted of three charges including conspiracy to defraud and authorising the issuance of a prospectus that included an untrue statement.

The offences were committed in 2001 and 2002.
