Posted - 28 September 2008 : 00:29:46 Hi all bankrupts are required to disclose all assets of sufficient value. "sufficient" is not defined which makes things difficult.
However, if we're talking about an equity share in a foreign property then non disclosure of the asset is non cooperation where the official receiver is concerned and perjury where the court is concerned.
Depending on the case and the location of the asset this could be discovered by the OR. Repercussions for perjury would again depend on the case and the individual's history.
