Raffles Interior Ltd. ( (HK:1376) ) has shared an announcement.

Raffles Interior Limited has disclosed interim findings from an independent investigation into former chairman and current executive director Zheng Nenghuan, whose executive duties are suspended. The probe, led by an Independent Board Committee and external counsel DLA Piper Hong Kong, centers on a series of 2025 events involving a large self-dealing transaction, trading halt instructions, and undisclosed litigation history.

Investigators found that Zheng’s unilateral execution of a HK$300 million acquisition, misrepresentation of the seller’s independence, and failure to disclose his litigation and bankruptcy record may constitute breaches of fiduciary duties, violations of Hong Kong listing disclosure rules, and potential fraud against the company and its shareholders. The report notes Zheng was well aware of his obligations given prior training and legal support, and recommends a further in-depth review of all agreements and documents he approved between September and December 2025 to identify any additional liabilities or exposures, signaling heightened governance and legal risks for stakeholders.
