Ms. Marilyn Young, the Filipina live-in partner of the late chess legend Bobby Fischer has come out with her comment on the news from Iceland regarding the decision of the Iceland Supreme Court recognizing the legality of the marriage of Fischer to the Japanese Miyoko Watai.
Through her lawyer, Samuel Estimo, Ms. Young said, "It's well that Miyoko has been declared as the lawful wife of Bobby. But I am still seeking justice for Jinky, my daughter with Bobby, who was born in Baguio City, Philippines in May, 2001."
Ms. Young filed the claim of her daughter with the probate court of Reykjavic within the legal period, submitting in the process Jinky's birth certificate, family fotos, bank remittances of Bobby's financial support and the affidavit of GM Eugene Torre, Asia's first grandmaster and long-time confidant and chief second to the chess icon in his return match with GM Boris Spassky in the former Yugoslavia in 1992.
Under Icelandic law, the lawful wife gets one-third of the estate of a deceased person while the lawful child inherits the remaining two-thirds.
Marilyn and Jinky Young, GM Eugene Torre and lawyer Samuel Estimo are scheduled to go to London during the last week of November for a shoot of a BBC-HBO documentary on the life of Fischer. "We will be proceeding to Iceland after the shoot in London to follow-up the claim of Jinky," Marilyn said.
"We are even willing to subject Jinky to DNA tests if that should be the case," lawyer Estimo said. "We complied with all the requirements in filing a estate claim before the probate court of Reykjavic, and we expect a fair and justified ruling, nothing less, nothing more, nothing else," he added.
"Bobby will turn in his grave if the inheritance of his daughter Jinky will not be awarded by the Icelandic court," GM Eugene Torre said. "I had seen with my two eyes how Bobby lovingly took care of her daughter Jinky during her infant days in Baguio," concluded Torre.
