A Chinese workerkilled himself after a fourth-generation iPhone prototype he was responsible for disappeared.

The 25-year-old engineer, Sun Danyong, who worked for Foxconn, jumped from a 12-story building last week. A Chinese newspaper reported that his property had been seized and that he was held in solitary confinement, where he faced "unbearable interrogation techniques" for having lost one of 16 "4G" prototypes.

It was probably a murder, those Chinese corporate elites are very strict in operation and discipline and he probably just left the thing in his pants pocket thats under his bed, poor guy.

Yeah, its sad really how much companies can get away with over there. You would think that since they are "communist" the companies would have to abide by many restrictions.
I don't really consider China communist anymore. More like corporatist.
