$13 MILLION FRAUD CONVICTION FOR FORMER KLEENMAID BOSS

A FORMER director of whitegoods distributor Kleenmaid, Bradley Wendell Young, on Friday was found guilty of dishonestly gaining a $13 million loan and insolvent trading of debts of $4 million.

A jury found Young guilty on 18 charges, following a 761 day trial at the Brisbane District Court.

  • one count of dishonestly gaining loan facilities from Westpac Bank in November 2007 totalling $13 million; and
  • seventeen counts of criminal insolvent trading of debts amounting to more than $4 million.

The jury found Young not guilty on one count of criminal insolvent trading. Bail was refused and he was remanded in custody pending sentencing on 12 August 2016.

A date is yet to be set for the trial of his fellow former Director, the founder of Kleenmaid, Andrew Eric Young.
