Political Refugee Sues U.S. Branch of Chinese Bank over Torture
Guo Shuqing, chairman of China Construction Bank
Having failed to get the justice he sought in China, expatriate Liu Bo Shan has sued the recently opened New York branch of his former Chinese employer to prove his claims of being tortured for exposing corruption. Shan, who now lives in Flushing, NY, worked as a manager for the China Construction Bank in Hongling from 1988 to August 1993, during which time he performed an audit that he claims exposed fraud committed by a bank vice president. After reporting his findings, Shan was arrested on charges of having sex with a prostitute at work—an allegation he denies. Shan was then imprisoned and tortured by police to get him to confess to the alleged crime. According to his lawsuit, Shan was subjected to shackling, beatings, and having his genitals burned, among other tortures. China Construction Bank is considered the second largest bank in the world based on market capitalization.
