Former Baha Mar owner sues Chinese contractor over ‘massive fraud’ Tracy Rucinski, Reuters · December 27, 2017 at 1:44 pm (Reuters) – The original owner of the Baha Mar Resort, BML Properties Ltd, has filed a $2.25 billion lawsuit alleging a “massive fraud” by the Chinese contractor of the luxury hotel and casino project in Nassau, the Bahamas, that opened its doors in April after years of delays. The 259-page complaint, filed in state court in Manhattan on Tuesday, accuses Chinese state-backed contractor China Construction America (CCA) of running a self-enrichment scheme that led to the failure of the $3.5 billion mega-resort project in 2015. CCA, a subsidiary of Shanghai-listed China State Construction Engineering Corp Ltd (601668.SS), did not return requests for comment.
