Wendelin posts, regarding Lucius Malfoy's motives in CoS:
"He was wagering - on very good odds - that the close Weasley/Potter
relationship would get the book near to Harry, one way or another."
 
I don't think that LM had any interest in HP with respect to the planting of
Voldemort/Riddle's diary.  I agree with the motive mentioned in the text --
that LM was trying to bring about the political fall of Arthur Weasley and
AW's muggle protection act by arranging it so that a Weasley would be caught
terrorizing muggle-borns in league with the heir of Slytherin.
