LOS ANGELES--()--Glancy Prongay & Murray LLP (“GPM”) announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of investors who purchased Pingtan Marine Enterprise Ltd. (“Pingtan” or the “Company”) (NASDAQCM: PME) securities between August 8, 2016 through May 10, 2017, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

On May 10, 2017, Aurelius Value published a report stating, in addition to other matters, that Pingtan is specifically banned from Indonesia and Pingtan used investor capital to finance widespread illegal activity.
