Hong Kong forger Peter Chan bankrupt after failing to pay legal fees owed to late tycoon Nina Wang’s foundation in faked will case


Convicted forger Peter Chan Chun-chuen has been declared bankrupt for failing to pay HK$28.4 million (US$3.6 million) in legal fees owed to the charitable foundation of late tycoon Nina Wang Kung Yu-sum after the civil suit that determined he had faked her will.

Madam Justice Linda Chan Ching-fan on Thursday granted a bankruptcy order petitioned by the Chinachem Charitable Foundation, despite objections from Peter Chan, a former feng shui master who changed his name from Tony and later converted to Christianity after being jailed in 2013.
