Anheuser sues to halt InBev bid
From Times Wire Services
Anheuser-Busch Cos. is suing Belgian brewer InBev in federal court, seeking to bar its spurned suitor from soliciting support from Anheuser-Busch shareholders.
The lawsuit calls InBev’s unsolicited $46-billion offer to buy Anheuser-Busch illegal.
It says InBev concealed that it does business in Cuba, which could complicate its efforts to operate in the U.S.
InBev filed a motion asking Anheuser-Busch shareholders to fire the company’s board of directors and replace them with a slate selected by InBev.
