Some say he died in 2009, others, including the Serious Fraud Office, suspect he’s hiding out in the rainforests of Borneo. This bankrupted businessman was best known for drinking red wine from a teapot at breakfast and for his public spats with Egon Ronay, Richard Desmond, Lord Rothschild and Ernest Saunders. He met his wife, Nicola, in a nightclub. When asked what she’d require to move in with him, she asked for £5,000 a month. He organised it that very night and though most of his assets have been seized, she continues to drive a top of the range Mercedes and lives in comparative luxury on the island of Labuan, Malaysia. The investigators are still watching.
Guilty and still out there. He’ll surface one day.
Sounds very suspicious to me. Strangely there is another David Elias who died this week:

He died in equally bizarre circumstances.
What shocking news for Jennie and Alexander Elias (the first wife and son of the David Elias named in the Daily Mail report.) My condolences to those two lovely people.
They’ll find him one of these days …
If he is still in hiding – I don’t think it will be in the rainforests of Borneo. Doesn’t seem in keeping with his lifestyle somehow!
Buried under Barclay Center?
David who??
He is now dead!
Who knows…
