The late Hong Kong Chinachem Group chairman Nina Wang's hundreds of billions of estate claims were resumed at the High Court. The picture is prepared for the Chan of the competition case.  Sino-New Society information map Tan Daming Beijing, February 2, according to Hong Kong, China Tong News, the Hong Kong High Court 2nd on the late Chinachem chairman Nina Wang's Century competition case, the businessman Chan in Nina's probate case, Chan will have the way out, the success of the appeal and how high? Judging from the present situation, Chan can only make a choice between appeal and no appeal. As the court's verdict refers to the forgery of his will, he is likely to be asked to be investigated if Chan does not lodge an appeal.  In Hong Kong, a forged will is a criminal offence and the maximum prison sentence is 14 years. A senior lawyer said Ms Wang, who was in contention with Wang Tingxin, was immediately asked to help investigate and was criminally prosecuted after losing the first trial, but was suspended because of her successful appeal.  Therefore, it is reasonable to believe that after the Chan lost the case, the police have a great opportunity to request Chan to assist in the investigation. More than 300 pages of the verdict pointed out that the combination of all factual evidence, expert opinion, as well as indirect background, that Chan hand-held "2006 will" without Ms Wang signed, and without the Yongxiang and Wu Chongwu identification. At the same time, the court did not believe Nina would be desperate to leave all her possessions to Chan.  The court also found that Chan for the inheritance lawsuit before Ms Nina died, and that Chan was not a credible witness. Senior counsel described the verdict as comprehensive, and the trial process was based on the expert opinion of handwriting, relied on scientific evidence, and considered the overall environmental evidence, including the relationship between Nina and Chan, and clearly concluded that Chan's will was forged.  He pointed out that the verdict most based on the facts, it is difficult to dispute, and the same year Nina and the family after the lawsuit against the appeal of the argument is different, Nina's argument is mainly legal issues.  The lawyer also argued that the court pointed to Chan as an untrustworthy witness and had no reservations in winning the Chinachem Charitable fund, so Chan's chances of successful appeal were somewhat difficult.  MA, Director of the Law Society of Hong Kong, said that if the losing party could lodge an appeal within 28th, the direct appeal to the CFA would solve the problem more directly, subject to the consent of both parties and whether there was any appeal grounds.  As to whether the Court refers to the criminal liability of the Chan hand-held will, MA Resources believes that the police would further investigate the person who was the forger and who exercised the false document. In addition, some lawyers estimate that the case will lead to other civil lawsuits, such as victory in the direction of the loser to recover more gifts or less to pay the fees. Chan was given at least HK $2.1 billion at the trial, and there was criticism that he should pay taxes on feng shui income.  Under the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Ordinance, the maximum penalty for tax evasion includes imprisonment for 3 years, a fine of HK $50,000 and a fine equal to 3 times times the duty payable. Chan has issued a statement to the public relations firm this afternoon, saying he was "disappointed" with a lawyer who was studying the verdict in detail.and decided to lodge an appeal. Now that Chan has chosen the way to appeal, the outcome is to be seen. (Richinliang)
