The debt collectors/bank would not take no for an answer, and threatened me and my current tenants with legal action, sealing off the premises, confiscating the tenant's belongings, etc..unless the loan was repaid.
My current tenants have already served me a termination notice and have informed their lawyers to issue me a Letter of Demand for liquidated damages for emotional and mental stress suffered from the debt collectors.
Can any kind souls out there advise me on my options?

No kelong no guni.
More kelong = more guni.
