“Mr Yang Zhong, also a businessman, is suspected to be behind the murder attempt of Mr Wu Haiwang.” He said
The police spokesman said that Haiwang sustained much injury.
“As a result, Mr Yang Zhong, who holds a Passport with number G58738024, suspected to be the brain behind the murder attempt, has been declared wanted by the police.” Majiya said
According to him, the Chinese embassy has been contacted to assist in tracking down Yang Zhong, who he described as the principal suspect.
