Zhenli Ye Gon

Zhenli Ye Gon (b. 1963, Hong Kong) is a business man of Chinese origin, apparently accused by Mexican government of trafficking pseudoephedrine into Mexico from Asia.

Mr. Ye Gon claimed in an interview that he kept the money found in his house in Mexico, which is apparently the largest illegal fortune ever found in the world (+205 million American dollars), after having been blackmailed by "Mexico's government party".

In the first major accusation linking the administration of President Felipe Calderon to Mexico's drug underworld, Zhenli Ye Gon claims Javier Lozano Alarcon, now Mexico's labor secretary, threatened to kill him unless he stored duffel bags stuffed with at least $150 million.

Mr. Ye Gon's fathers-in-law have a good and old prestige among the Chinese community in Mexico.
