CHICAGO - A Taiwanese executive of several honey import companies was
arrested in Los Angeles Wednesday night on federal charges filed in Chicago
for allegedly conspiring to illegally import honey that was falsely
identified to avoid U.S. anti-dumping duties.

Hung Ta Fan, 41, was arrested without incident when he arrived at Los
Angeles International Airport on a flight from Taiwan, announced Patrick J.
Fitzgerald, U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, and Gary J.
Hartwig, special agent in charge of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement
(ICE) in Chicago.

Fan, also known as "Michael Fan," of Taiwan, is president of Blue Action
Enterprise Inc., a California-based honey import company. He was also an
executive of other similar companies, including 7 Tiger Enterprises Inc.,
Honey World Enterprise Inc., both of which are now defunct, and Kashaka USA
Inc., all of which he allegedly used to import Chinese honey into the United
States. Fan was charged with conspiracy to illegally import honey in a
criminal complaint and was expected to appear on April 1 in U.S. District
Court in Los Angeles.
