Capricorn Metals chief stood down after aggravated assault charge

West Australian gold miner Capricorn Metals has stood down its chief executive after he was charged with aggravated assault. Paul Criddle pleaded not guilty in a Fremantle court a week ago, but shareholders were only informed on Tuesday when the company issued a statement to the ASX. Criddle, who joined Capricorn in December, had been 'granted leave pending the resolution of this personal matter', it said.
