Finest Future promises students a pathway to Finnish high schools through an intensive Finnish language programme.

Students typically study online for two months before attending a four-month language camp in rural Finland .

The company, founded by former Rovio executive Peter Vesterbacka and partners, promises the experience never materialised.

Some families are now considering legal action, but are unlikely to receive support under Chinese or Finnish law.

Ayad al-Saffar has been open about his affinity for Finnish icon Stockmann .

Swedish department store chain Åhlens is now owned by the Lebanese entrepreneur.

In an interview with Kauppalehti last winter , he said he loved Stockmann and wanted to buy it.

However, he did not seem so keen when HS followed up on any deal.
