VW official deported for cocaine use
Print Edition
A SENIOR Volkswagen executive detained and deported from China had tested positive for cocaine, the foreign ministry said yesterday.
Jochen Sengpiehl, 57, chief marketing officer and head of product strategy for China, tested positive for cannabis after a routine drug test when he returned to Volkswagen headquarters in Beijing from a holiday in Koh Samui, Thailand, about two weeks ago.
He was detained, and then deported and banned from entering the country for violating Chinese law.
Responding to a reporter’s question at a regular ministry press conference, spokesman Lin Jian said Sengpiehl had tested positive for cocaine.
