so Mark Karpeles which claiming he holds no bitcoins anymore it is a lie?

well he is in jail, i'm sure that in remote case he hide some coins in a paper wallet, somewhere in the world, he can't use those anyway

i forgot if he was sentenced for life prison or just a few years

Maybe even few (much few). According to Wikipedia the first time was arrested this year and then released. Then arrested again. So must be at maximum months.

According to the above source: "Karpelès was arrested on 1 August 2015 by Japanese police on suspicion of having accessed the exchange's computer system to falsify data on its outstanding balance, he was later released then re-arrested and allegedly charged with embezzlement."
