possible takeover, page-4

Very unlikely - Mr. Khan has a large stable of companies which legally operate in concert and a number have interlocking shareholdings and common shareholders by his private companies, family, supporters etc. He very rarely fully takes over a company, preferring to keep it listed. For whatever reason, the market doesn't seem very keen on this and often prices companies which he effectively controls at very large discounts to their liquidation value (eg BEL). Together with his reputation for being willing to aggressively litigate possibly tells you why other posters on the MEO threads write in strange words.....not a man to be trifled with.
