                    [Title] => DOJ: Dante Tan not off the hook yet
                    [Summary] => Contrary to earlier reports, criminal charges against controversial businessman Dante Tan have not been dismissed, Justice Undersecretary Manuel Teehankee clarified yesterday.


Tan, who, according to Teehankee, masterminded the Best World (BW) Resources Corp. stock price manipulation scandal in 1999, was charged with seven criminal cases for violations of the Revised Securities Act of 1982 involving stock manipulation and fraud.

He has not been absolved from criminal liability and is in fact facing imprisonment of 49 to 147 years, Teehankee said.
