APV's crime documentary, The Double Kidnap of Teddy Wang is airing on the Crime & Investigation Network.

 

The Double Kidnap Of Teddy Wang
Hong Kong billionaire Teddy Wang was kidnapped not once, but twice – in 1983, and again in 1990.  The first time, he was released after his wife Nina paid a record US$11 million in ransom; the second time, he was not so lucky, and even though this time Nina paid US$30 million in ransom, his kidnappers dumped him overboard from a fishing boat in the South China Sea.
After his death, his widow assumed control of the couple’s real estate empire, all the while insisting that he was not dead. His father-in-law sued her for control of Teddy’s estate, and although she lost in court twice, she eventually won a “battle of the wills” and the entire estate. Her death last year, however, has triggered another estate battle, this time, pitting her relatives, her company’s charitable foundation, and her personal confidante, feng shui master Tony Chan, all of whom have signed wills giving them her multi-billion dollar fortune.
