'Business owners being targeted in South Africa'

Police in South Africa have arrested suspects after the slaying of a Chinese man.

Tang Yiguang, a 33-year-old from Fujian province, was shot in the head on Sunday morning, apparently by armed robbers attempting to hold up his store in Vryheid, a town 400 km from Johannesburg.

Embassy officials are already liaising with investigators and warning that Chinese business people are becoming targets in the country.
