Beverage heiress faces US$2b inheritance feud with supposed half-siblings

China beverage giant heiress Kelly Zong Fuli is embroiling in a US$2 billion (HK$15.6 billion) wealth tussle in Hong Kong, Bloomberg reported. 

Kelly Zong currently serves as chairwoman of Hangzhou Wahaha Group and has long been regarded as the only child of the company's late founder, Zong Qinghou.

Three individuals – Jacky Zong, Jessie Zong and Jerry Zong – have identified themselves as Kelly Zong's half-siblings – the first time their alleged relationship to her has been disclosed since the case emerged.

They sought an injunction to prevent Kelly Zong from disposing of, or diminishing the value of assets in a bank account.
