Forger of tycoon Nina Wang’s will was due to be discharged from bankruptcy order, but trustees have requested his status be maintained
A Hong Kong court has temporarily blocked convicted forger Peter Chan Chun-chuen from being discharged from a bankruptcy order imposed on him after he was found to have faked the will of late tycoon Nina Wang Kung Yu-sum and failed to pay HK$28.4 million (US$3.6 million) in legal fees to her charitable foundation.
Chan, a former feng shui master who claimed to be Wang’s lover, would have been automatically discharged from the High Court’s bankruptcy order in 2021 if no valid objection had been raised by his creditors before next Tuesday.
The trustees of Chan’s assets earlier filed a request to the court seeking to maintain the debtor’s legal status as bankrupt until his debts were settled.
