11 000 Paid To Save Family Says Publican
The bankrupt Epthinas Spiropoulos testified men took him in a car and beat him. He paid £5,000 on one occasion and borrowed £5,000 from a finance company to meet further demands. He had owned three Wollongong houses and two cafes, selling them in 1958 to take over the Royal Hotel in Yass. The hearing was adjourned as Spiropoulos cried during evidence. Tim Brown of Bellevue Hill was being examined on bankruptcy after October 1962 debt of £1,424 from a business partnership with Mechalopoulos. Spiropoulos said much of the debt related to that venture.
