China probes staff of GlaxoSmithKline

Written By Unknown on Senin, 01 Juli 2013 | 15.21

CHINESE police are investigating senior management staff of British drug firm GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) in China for suspected "economic crimes", according to a statement.

Police in the central Chinese city of Changsha said they were investigating personnel of GlaxoSmithKline (China) Investment Co., said the statement, which was reported by state media on Monday.

Hong Kong's South China Morning Post newspaper on Monday said police had detained company employees in three cities: Changsha, the commercial hub Shanghai and Beijing.

A spokeswoman for the company, which has its China headquarters in Shanghai, declined to comment, saying she was not authorised to speak to overseas media.

The allegations involve at least one foreign executive employed by the company, said the postings on China's Twitter-like microblogs.

The exact nature of the allegations was not specified by Changsha police. But authorities typically use the phrase "economic crimes" when referring to corruption.

GSK is one of the largest multinational pharmaceutical companies in China with total investment of more than $500 million, according to its website.

Last month, GSK said data was "misrepresented" in a paper written by scientists at its China research centre published in the journal "Nature Medicine" in 2010.

The company sacked one person involved in that incident and placed three others on administrative leave while another resigned, it said.
