You should write to Cathay ask them to follow-up on this issue.
A few months ago, I flew ADL - HKG in J and a PY pax helped himself into the nearly empty mini-J cabin. Little did he know that one of the Pursers had seen him and a few minutes later the Inflight Service Manager shouted: "Sir, this is Business Class. Please go back to your ticketed seat, NOW!" The guy then had the nerve to try to steal a pillow but the ISM (who by this point was already very annoyed) told him "That pillow is for our Business Class only."
I admit, I enjoyed every second of it. Business Class is no place for PY and Y pax.
