Relics Buyer Refuses to Pay.

The article reports on the refusal of Chinese art collector Cai Mingchao to pay for looted Chinese relics. Cai, who runs his own auction house in Xiamen, China, is also a senior advisor to the National Treasures Fund, which helps retrieve looted Chinese relics from abroad. He said he refused to pay for two bronze animal heads that were auctioned off at Christie's in Paris, France, because the bronzes were once part of a fountain that displayed 12 animal sculptures at the imperial winter resort, Yuanmingyuan, of the Qing dynasty.
