THE Chinese who filed a case for kidnap-for-ransom (KFR) and serious illegal detention against his former business partner lauded the Department of Justice (DoJ) for rejecting the dismissal plea filed by the accused.

Lin Xiaoqing, owner of Big Emperor Technology, a Philippine offshore gaming operator (POGO), said that while his claim of being kidnapped was not accepted by the DoJ, the rejection of the dismissal plea of the accused, Richard Lim, and its decision to try Lim for the lesser crime of grave coercion also proved he did not fabricate his story.
