He had fled Australia after the collapse of his $1.5billion Quintex group, with many accusing him of smuggling out a large fortune - making him one of the country's most wanted fugitives.

I stayed at the MGM for a week prior on business and nothing could make me stay there again! Who do they think they are fooling with no lobby seating?
