Vic: Bogus cancer quack faces jail time

A former bogus cancer therapist is facing jail after a Melbourne court found him guilty
of criminal charges.

The Melbourne man .. PAUL JOHN RANA .. was found guilty by Federal Court Justice TONY
NORTH of criminal charges over the failure to provide documents about his companies to
the ACCC consumer watchdog.

The ACCC already successfully sued RANA earlier this year for misleading and deceptive conduct.

The case involved cheating cancer sufferers out of tens of thousands of dollars to
pay for useless remedies he mistakenly told them could rid them of cancer.

RANA has pleaded NOT guilty to the more serious charges in which he rather than his
company NuEra .. at Wyndham Vale west of Melbourne .. was liable for not producing documents.
