Kevin Sheng Hsiang Fang, 41, and his wholesale business Yong Chang Trading Co. in the City of Industry pleaded guilty May 31.

A Pomona man faces up to 21 years in federal prison after attempting to sneak into the country frozen roasted eels that had been rejected for entry because they were tainted with unsafe animal drugs.

Fang attempted to reimport those rejected eels later that year by mixing them with a new shipment of eels and using different identification numbers that are needed when bringing goods to the U.S., said Assistant U.S. Atty. Amanda M. Bettinelli, who is prosecuting the case.
