He subsequently also faced charges from the Inland Revenue Department for evading taxes. His wife's passport was impounded but later released. Eventually, Tang found refuge in Australia, where he was reunited with his wife. After Tang left Singapore, the plaintiffs obtained the Mareva injunction against him to restrain him from disposing of assets and to require him to disclose the whereabouts of his assets. When Tang failed to file an affidavit disclosing his assets, the plaintiffs obtained default judgements against Tang in all their suits. Damages were assessed by a judge of the High Court at a total of $8,075,000. Tang's appeals against the default judgments were argued by an eminent British Queen's Counsel, Charles Gray, before the Court of Appeal in September 1997. Judgment has been reserved at the time of writing.
