On the balance of probabilities the defendants failed to prove the Chinese will dated 20 August 1980 was duly executed: the hearsay evidence attributed to Madam Tam was rejected as unreliable; Professor Lai's calligraphic 'recognition' method was rejected as unscientific; orthodox forensic examination by an experienced document expert established the questioned signature was a simulated forgery; accordingly the counterclaim for probate of the Chinese will is dismissed.
