Land and company records obtained by Kyodo News show that Su Jiangbo purchased a house in his name in the suburbs of Osaka in 2024. He is also listed as the director of an Osaka-based tourism and real estate company, which owns another house.

Those factors, he added, “provide a strong foundation for long-term business development.”
In the U.K., the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) issued freezing orders on his 85 London properties, but referred to Su Jiangbo in its March announcement only as “Mr. X.”
