A bankrupt builder who left a trail of debts behind in Queenstown appears to have been running a new construction business in Auckland.
Jaden Melgren’s Queenstown-based True Line Builders Ltd was put into voluntary liquidation in July 2017 and out-of-pocket creditors are still trying to claw back almost $800,000.
