Stamford Hill, North London, "I have no comment to make." He added: You will know everything in due course.

I will say something about it possibly Monday or Tuesday." Then, with his wife a daughter, Mr. Szajnfeld hurried off to a synagogue to celebrate the Jewish Day of Atonement Kippur.

Fasting Manfred Munster, who works in the same Maddoxstreet building, said 'yesterday: I cannot confirm or deny that Mr. Szajnfeld is the buyer of London and Cheshire. The buyer is fasting. I will name him at noon on Sunday, after the Day of Atonement has finished." Mr. Munster added, smiling: If I had the chance, I would like to disappear for the weekend.
