The prospect of spending 40 years in the slammer is apparently too much to face for Oliver Pan.
The former fund-raiser for city Comptroller John Liu was a no-show in court yesterday after questions were raised about his mental health.
Manhattan federal court Judge Richard Sullivan delayed Monday’s scheduled trial of Xing Wu “Oliver” Pan and former Liu campaign treasurer Jia “Jenny” Hou for at least one day.
The judge cited “privacy issues,” and revealed no details of Pan’s condition or whereabouts.
Pan’s lawyers declined to comment, but a law-enforcement source told The Post that officials feared that the New Jersey real-estate developer might try to kill himself.
“People around him felt he was suicidal,” the source said. “It was things he said to people around him, and those people around him were talking about it.”
Pan and Hou stand accused of scheming to obtain public campaign-finance matching funds by funneling illegal contributions into Liu’s political war chest.
