On 8 May 2017, as the final link to that fraud, Entatech entered administration, and 50 people lost their jobs overnight.^[5] On 21 July 2017, Tsai was sentenced to imprisonment for 18 months at the High Court of Justice (Chancery Division)^[3] for Contempt of Court on account of 27 breaches of a Freezing Order.^[4]
