印度逮捕vivo员工
New Delhi’s state agencies have also targeted mobile phone companies Oppo and Xiaomi in the past 18 months
过去18个月,印度官方机构还将目标对准Oppo和小米等其他手机企业。
New Delhi’s financial enforcement agency has arrested an employee of Chinese mobile phone company vivo, reigniting fears of a renewed crackdown on Chinese companies operating in India.
印度金融执法部门逮捕了中国手机公司vivo的一名员工,令外界再一次担忧在印中国企业会遭到新一轮整顿。
The overnight arrest comes more than a year after India’s Enforcement Directorate, which investigates financial crimes, raided vivo properties to probe claims of illegally remittance of funds from India to China, which the directorate said was equivalent to nearly half the company’s Rs1.2tn (£11.7bn) turnover.
在这次连夜逮捕的一年多前,调查金融犯罪的印度执法局(Enforcement Directorate)曾突击搜查vivo在印度的办公地点,以调查有关该公司从印度向中国非法汇款的指控。印度执法局表示,汇款金额相当于该公司1.2万亿卢比(合117亿英镑)营业额的近一半。
India and China’s diplomatic relations have been tense since deadly clashes between soldiers along the Himalayan border in 2020 and, while trade has continued, India has retaliated economically by banning scores of Chinese apps from its market, including video app TikTok.
自从2020年中印士兵在喜马拉雅边境爆发致命冲突以来,印度和中国的外交关系一直紧张,虽然贸易仍在继续,但印度采取了经济报复措施,在其国内市场封禁了几十个中国应用,包括视频应用TikTok。
