Suntech Power Holdings (NYSE: STP) have concluded that a minority shareholder defrauded the company after an investigation.
The alleged rip off of the company’s solar development fund has led the China based solar company to announce a possible $60-80m reduction in profit for the 2010 year.
Reuters reports that the scandal involves Luxembourg-based investment fund GSF Sicar, a solar power plant developer 80 percent owned by Suntech and 10 percent by Zhengrong Shi, who founded Suntech in 2001.
The allegation relates to a minority shareholder, GSF Capital PTE, which owns the remaining 10 percent of the fund.
