EX-BHS chief guilty on pensions charge

Dominic Chappell, who was in charge of BHS when it went bust in 2016, has been found guilty on three charges of failing to provide information demanded by the Pensions Regulator.

The watchdog accused him of neglecting or refusing to hand over information about BHS’S pension schemes.

The schemes had 19,000 members and a shortfall of £571m when BHS collapsed.

Mr Chappell, a former bankrupt, bought the department store chain from Sir Philip Green for £1.
