The administratrix was removed under section 33(3) of the Probate and Administration Ordinance because she failed to render accounts, delayed distribution for many years, appears to have disappeared and may have misappropriated estate assets, such that removal was necessary for due and proper administration and to protect beneficiaries' interests; P1 was appointed administrator given beneficiaries' support and lack of alternative candidate.
