Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 48811, member: 636"] A famous fashion designer faces financial ruin after courts made him bankrupt. Jovian Mandagie owes over five million ringgit to a construction company that trusted him with cash. The High Court stamped the bankruptcy order when he could not pay back the massive debt. His failed attempts to fight the legal action left him with no options. The designer must face the consequences of his unpaid loans. Cekap Air Sdn Bhd gave Jovian the money back in February 2022 through a simple handshake deal. Company boss Yong Zhen Wei trusted the celebrity designer because of his business reputation. The loan came with a promise to pay everything back within twelve months. Court papers show the designer never returned a single cent to his creditors. The construction firm had to take legal action to recover their money. Jovian married Nina Ismail Sabri back in 2013 when her father served as prime minister. The couple split up during 2024 after eleven years of marriage. His connection to the former first family gave him credibility with lenders. The company believed his family ties made him a safe bet for the large loan. Court documents reveal how his high-profile marriage influenced their decision. Judges ordered Jovian to repay the debt in April 2024 but he ignored the ruling. His lawyers tried multiple tactics to avoid bankruptcy but failed every time. The designer will appeal the summary judgment next September at higher courts. Legal experts doubt he can overturn the bankruptcy decision. His financial troubles continue to mount as creditors circle. [/QUOTE]
