    Экс-глава группы STX находится под арестом по обвинению в подкупе

    Бывший глава судостроительного холдинга STX Group, находящегося в тяжелом финансовом положении, был официально задержан 14 апреля 2014 года и ожидает суда по обвинению в должностном преступлении. Ордер на арест был выдан Центральным окружным судом  Сеула, передает южнокорейское информационное агентство «Ренхап».

    Возглавлявший группу с 2003 по февраль 2014 года 64-летний Кан Дук Суи обвиняется в нецелевом расходовании средств, переводу капиталов из STX Heavy Industries Co. в убыточные филиалы, в том числе в STX Construction Co. и STX Dalian Co. и расходовании фондов компании на подкуп политиков.

    Судья Юн Ган-ель отметил, что арест был обоснован, поскольку у подозреваемого существовала возможность скрыться и уничтожить улики.

    Южнокорейская прокуратура начала расследование по делу в феврале 2014 года, когда компания подала жалобу на пять бывших руководителей, в том числе на Кан Дук Суи.

    Когда-то крупнейшая судостроительная группа Южной Кореи STX Group включает 10 дочерних компаний, которые в последнее время переживают нелегкие времена, вызванные нехваткой ликвидности и ростом задолженности из-за спада в судостроительной и судоходной индустрии.

    Кан, который начал свою трудовую биографию с рабочего в цементной компании, смог подняться по карьерной лестнице, возглавить группу STX и превратить ее в один из крупнейших конгломератов страны через корпоративные слияния и поглощения.

    STX Construction Co. Ltd. (Ю. Корея) - основанная в 2005 году дочерняя компания группы STX. Компания выполняет контракты в строительном секторе: строит офисные и жилые здания, а также дороги, мосты, туннели. Помимо головного офиса в Чанвон-Си, имеет представительства в России, ОАЕ, Саудовской Аравии, Гане, Китае, Вьетнаме, Сингапуре. STX Dalian Co. (Чансин, Китай) - судостроительное подразделение STX Group.
