The masked brothers, Bannon and Guo Wengui, really depend on each other for good or fortune. This is not because Guo Wengui has just been accused of raping a female secretary and has suffered a huge loss of US$59 million because of the illegal fund-raising case involving a well-known short shorting the Hong Kong dollar. Refusing to cooperate with judicial investigations and facing charges, Bannon has no life guarantee before the law, and there is no longer the possibility of amnesty.
