It's hard to be surprised by any further developments in the Serhat Gumrukcu/Enochian Biosciences ($ENOB) saga, given that as I type this the former is in a Vermont prison awaiting trial for conspiracy to murder. But this lawsuit takes it up a notch. https://t.co/l9TgcG8AkZ

Woah! As $SBB progresses as planned, here's some news about @ilija_batljan & #SBB. #Batljan may need legal advice before visiting the UK, as he can run his mouth off with zero substance. Pretty much like all bad mgmt everywhere. If this is true SBB investors are #screwed.

Interesting. Only adds to potential HK listings, but there was a reason why cos went this route. Look at MEGL. Two former auditors running a small service business with a few FTEs and some contractors and minimal revenues. Look at the IPO broker. https://t.co/WJwgZ3bIQT
