A total of 18 suspects, including the head of a Tianjin-based Chinese herbal medicine company, have been detained by police following an investigation, a local news portal reported on Monday.
Shu Yuhui, the boss of Quanjian Nature Medicine Technology Development Co, is under criminal detention, tjyun.com reported.
