The judge has now ordered that the property be sold and the money be paid back \- including ten per cent interest and legal fees, reports news.com.au. Mr Elliott said: "It is established that the Craigieburn property was acquired with funds traceable to the wrongful payment and would never have been in Gangadory's hands if the wrongful payment had not been made. "Thus, Gangadory was unjustly enriched by receiving the purchase price of the Craigieburn property out of the wrongful payment. "Accordingly, I was satisfied that the orders relating to the sale of the Craigieburn property were appropriate." Other orders have also been issued against others who received money from the accidental payment.
