The company Atlas Mara is a controversial banking and financial firm which was established in the year 2013 by equally controversial businessman Bob Diamond. The banking chain was established in Zambia as well as across Africa with the objective of becoming financial giant across the nation. With this objective, Bob Diamond conducted several acquisitions across the nations. One of these acquisitions was Dr. Rajan Mahtani owned Finance Bank Zambia. Despite the fact that the takeover of Finance Bank Zambia by Bob Diamond’s owned Atlas Mara took place via original sales & purchase agreement, it was not honoured by the latter. According to the claim established by Dr. Rajan Mahtani, Atlas Mara breached the terms of agreement and failed to make payment of dues against the shares taken over.

Even Bob Diamond faced several controversies in the year 2012 when he was asked to step down from the position of CEO (Chief Executive Officer) of Barclays after the infamous Libor-rigging scandal.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani

Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani, a noted businessman in Zambia, recently approached the international law firm Omnia Strategy for pursuing a multi-million pound damage claim against Atlas Mara and its founder Bob Diamond. The company was established in the year 2013 by Bob Diamond with the objective of establishing a banking giant across African sub-continent. The 69-year old business tycoon previously faced tremendous backlash and had to step down as the Chief Executive Officer at Barclays after he was named in the Libor-rigging scandal.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani took the right step and approached the London High Court by hiring Cherie Blair-famed Omnia Strategy.

Supreme Court Bench Announces Its Final Verdict On The Claim By The Ventriglia Family

The long-sustained and blatant criminal activities occurring within the Zambezi Portland Cement is finally over. A recent verdict from the Supreme Court Zambia regarding a claim made by the Ventriglia family made all aspects associated with the case clearer. Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani has established a name for himself within the business community of Zambia. At the same time, this entire business community is now aware of the infamous case of Zambezi Portland Cement and the main culprits behind its decade-old challenges. The Portland Cement Zambia case started when Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani approached the Lusaka High Court after the illegal takeover of the factory. Despite having all evidences and testimonials, Dr. Rajan Mahtani did not receive justice and the verdict from Lusaka High Court went in favour of the Ventriglia family. After that, Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani approached the higher Court of Appeal. On 31st January 2019, justice Mwinde on behalf of the higher Court of Appeal gave his final verdict on the case. In this verdict, the previous decision from the Lusaka High Court was effectively ignored and Dr. Mahtani was announced as the majority shareholder and legal owner of the factory.

Unhappy with this decision, the Ventriglia family once again decided to try their luck by making an appeal to the Supreme Court Zambia. In this appeal, the Ventriglia family challenged the decision of higher Court of Appeal. However, this challenge was met with rejection as the Supreme Court bench confirmed that the Ventriglia family failed to comply with critical requirement in which all appeals against previous court decisions are to be submitted within 14 days. The Ventriglia family came with their approach only after 1.5 years and as such, their appeal was effectively rejected by the Supreme Court Zambia.

Higher Court Of Appeal’s Decision On Portland Cement Remains Same

Despite losing several battles, Dr. Rajan Mahtani has finally won the war for Portland Cement Zambia. The first court to take the case was Lusaka High Court which declared its choice during May, 2018. Be that as it may, this choice was disputable as the Ventriglias were declared as just greater part investors and proprietors of the production line with no pertinent proof or tributes. Then, at that point came the higher Court of Appeal which reported its decision on 31st January 2019 in which the past choice from the Lusaka High Court was dismissed and Dr. Mahtani was declared as larger part investor just as legitimate proprietor of the manufacturing plant. The third court was Supreme Court Zambia where a case was taken by the Ventriglia family guaranteeing the choice from the higher Court of Appeal. The Supreme Court Zambia assessed this case and dismissed it adequately because of absence of confirmations, addressing conditions just as resistance of basic enactments.

Be that as it may, it seems like the Ventriglia family have a barefaced negligence for the most elevated level court of the country as they have consistent to mount their unlawful status inside the concrete assembling manufacturing plant. Reports have demonstrated that recruited hooligans set at the processing plant ceaselessly forestalled arrangement of interval CEO so nobody assumes responsibility for the plant. This endeavour is an unmistakable dismissal of the judgment from the countries’ most noteworthy lawful court. It seems like the Ventriglia family think themselves as above low. As of now, Dr. Mahtani has been given the majority shareholding and legitimate responsibility for Portland Cement Zambia plant from all major courts in Zambia.
