1. Atan, Bella and Chan are the directors of ABC Bhd, a company which supplies stationery to schools and universities. Atan is the managing director of the company. Last week the court ordered ABC Bhd to be wound up on the ground that it was unable to pay its debts. Among the creditors of ABC Bhd is JKL Bhd, which had supplied a large quantity of stationery to ABC Bhd. A week before Atan, Bella and Chan ordered the stationery from JKL Bhd, they were informed by ABC Bhd's accountant that ABC Bhd was hopelessly insolvent and that it would be unable to pay its debts.
