Born in Perpignan in 1941, Mr. Jacques Guizemanes realized his studies in ˇ®ˇ®Bonne Nouvelle'' Jesuit College in Barcelona. He further engaged in superior studies in Law at the Paris Law Faculty, and then studied for the position of superintendent at the National Superior Police School of Lyon. From 1969 to 2002 he worked for the Central Direction of the Judicial Police. As a specialist in economic and financial affairs, he reached the position of National Director. In the past, he has also worked as Head of Department for the National Direction of Customs Investigations.
During his administrative career he received several decorations including:
--ˇ®ˇ®Officier dans l'ordre de la L¨¦gion d'Honneur''
--ˇ®ˇ®Chevalier dans l'ordre du M¨¦rite''
-- Honour Medal of National Police
In the exercise of his functions, he was confronted with several cases of money laundering, financial infractions and imitations.
He went to China for the first time in 1995 to lead a French delegation on the occasion of the Interpol's Congress in Beijing. Since then, he has literally fallen in love with China and went back several times (16 up to now). He became a specialist in ancient inventions and discoveries, as well as in Chinese Art and visited many provincial museums. Recently, he has offered his experience as an investigator to serve APACE's mission and purpose. He estimated necessary to establish a strong link between Chinese Archeological services and Chinese specialised Police services in order to allow APACE to better represent China in the recovery of National Treasures lost oversees, the condemnation of raiders and their accomplice and the breaking up of looting networks.
APACE wishes to sincerely thank Mr. Guimezanes for his collaboration to the protection and the defence of China's cultural heritage.
