Re Thread: [Ferrari accident] Should assets of Ma Chi be frozen immediately for (re-)compensation?
cherry6,
perhaps the government should not step in but rather the traffic police should quickly conclude its case so that a civil claim can proceed on two legs
in the civil claim, to request the Court to freeze the assets of the estate until such time the Court make a judgment. Also to serve notice to the administrator of the estate that a civil claim is being filed and that as administrator, she should not distribute the funds until the claim is settled
however, like you said, it is possible for the funds to be sent abroad, the administrator returned to China and then there is no way to recover the funds as a civil case cannot request extradition of the administrator
from the points you raised, the probability is present that the victims will suffer injustice

That is why I feel that with such compelling prima facie evidence all over the internet, the insurers of the Ferrari cannot help but be ready for a 3rd party claim which they cannot possibly defend (except by penny pinching)- to which they should immediately indemnify themselves from the costs by applying for the civil court to seize Ma Chi's accounts and properties in sufficient quantity to cover anticipated victim compensation (the public hospital treating Ms Wu [SBY, 15Jun2012] should do exactly the same).
If the SLA permits transfer of a title deed seized by the courts or a bank allows frozen accounts to be paid out or transferred then these professional bodies shall carry the liability for their negligence since the pronouncement of the court is law.
Singapore MUST NOT become like China, where personal profit and money seems the only purpose in life:
, where the family of Ma Chi, in evading the need of his estate to compensate, may return to China boasting what a fantastic person he was while his victims suffer in silence, and as Singaporeans cry over spilled milk.
The 2 families of the 3rd party deceased will relive the footage of the 'accident' each time they cross a road or even log-on to the internet and no amount of money or regret can ever compensate for the fear and injustice they live with; the least that the administrator of the estate of Ma Chi can ever do is to take ownership, apologize and re-compensate. Ma Chi defied the law and snuffed out two lives, now let the courts please judge what is right.
Rgds,
