    On the balance of probabilities the Official Receiver proved the bankrupt obstructed and failed to cooperate in administration by impeding realization of Canadian properties, withholding and providing incomplete Gaylaw records and fabricating documents, impeding realization of Wei Wei shares and failing to make contributions; these findings satisfy s.30A(4)(b),(c) and (d) and justify suspending automatic discharge for the statutory maximum period of four years (discharge suspended until 13 August 2008).
