HONG KONG (REUTERS) - A Hong Kong judge on Friday jailed the former lover of late billionaire tycoon Nina Wang for 12 years for forging a will naming him the sole beneficiary of her estate, one of Asia's largest fortunes, estimated at US$4 billion (S$5.1 billion).
Justice Andrew Macrae handed down the sentence to Peter Chan, formerly known as Tony Chan, in the city's High Court a day after a jury found him guilty on charges of forgery and using a forged document. Chan had pleaded not guilty to a number of charges.
Sentencing Chan to 12 years on each charge, to be served concurrently, Judge Macrae highlighted the "shameless and unparalleled greed" at the heart of a "well-executed and well-planned" crime.
"Never once have you shown the slightest remorse for your conduct," the judge said.
