Business Age Magazine article on Chapman & DeLorean

[Senatorpack@xxxx]

Does anyone know of the British business magazine; BusinessAge ( BA ) 
Magazine?

This article was sent to me form a former DMC senior executive insider at DMC 
New York.

"The magazine has studied the Colin Chapman death for several years and has 
published a number of articles on Chapman's death as it relates to DeLorean. 
The facts illuminated raise suspicions and the mystery continues. According 
to BA journalists, Tony Rubythinon, Anil Bhoyiul, and Jukka Shivonnen, Colin 
Chapman's premature death was masterminded by JZD." 

"It was discovered during the company's U.K. bankruptcy hearing that 
approximately 17.5 million dollars were missing from the Belfast company's 
accounts. DeLorean's bookkeeping showed that this amount had been paid to 
Lotus; however, Chapman maintained that he knew nothing about these payments, 
a contention supported by a preliminary audit of Lotus' (accounting) books. 
Just prior to a second appointment with Receiver Sir Kenneth Cork, in order 
to provide his (Colin Chapman) official statement of fact, however, Chapman 
died unexpectedly. Obviously he (Chapman) would have testified that Lotus 
had never received the sum itemized by DeLorean, in which case there could 
have been a possible 10 year sentence for DeLorean."

"Accounts indicate that prior to the meeting between Cork and Chapman, 
DeLorean had tried to convince Chapman to give testimony clearing him 
(DeLorean) of any wrongdoing. Of course, had Chapman perjured himself he 
would have come under judicial scrutiny himself, a condition which was 
obviously unacceptable to Chapman."

BusinessAge magazine suggests that "as a result of his (Chapman) rebuff - 
DeLorean paid 1 million dollars to organized crime associates in order to 
manage a "natural" death for Chapman, thereby insuring that he never 
completed his final statement to Sir Kenneth Cork."

The facts are curious. "On the day of his (Chapman) death Chapman flew 
his private plane to France for a meeting relating to his (Lotus) racing 
business. On the flight he apparently carried passengers who were both 
uninvolved in his business interests and unknown to him, an obviously unusual 
situation. Chapman never arrived at the meeting and after flying himself 
home, according to his wife (Hazel Chapman) could not remember much of what 
happened during the day. He retired early in the evening complaining of 
illness and during the night died of a massive heart attack. BA magazine 
supposes that Chapman had been injected with DIGITALIS, a drug know to cause 
nearly untraceable heart attack."
