Fugitive’s company closed down over $1.69M debt

Ryan Bateman

(CNS Business): A company owned by a man wanted by local police for a violent crime has been wound up by the Grand Court after a creditor in the British Virgin Islands tried and failed for more than six months to get back almost $1.7 million he had on account with B&C Capital Ltd. Ryan Bateman, the firm’s sole director, was on remand in Cayman for a GBH charge in relation to an alleged assault on his girlfriend when he left the Cayman Islands some two years ago in 2014.
