The Sun reports today that Frank appoints his mum Anne to act on his behalf at Underworld after Carla refuses to have anything to do with him after he rapes her. Frank's mum Anne then sets about weasling her way into unsuspecting Carla's heart - as Frank pulls the strings to bring her down.
Eventually one morning Anne turns up with heavies who set about stripping the factory of half of everything - including sewing machines and stock.
Workers try to stop the men while frantic Carla rings a lawyer. But she is told that Frank is within his rights to remove goods representing his share of the business.
Distraught Carla has no option but to send staff home, leaving big orders unfinished and herself facing financial ruin.
