There's an AVZ announcement on this topic from some time ago - go to the AVZ websiteSorry to bother everyone but where can I find any official notifications of the stolen 20 million that was the payment for the 10% sale to Simon Cong
I don't actually think it specifies exactly how much was stolen from memory?There's an AVZ announcement on this topic from some time ago - go to the AVZ website
Yeah Christian Lusaka apparently stole some of it, if not all of it and avz was having trouble checking the account last we heard (I think). What an immense shitshow of epic proportions!Can anyone explain to me why in the recent ICC determination regarding the purchase of shares from Dathomir AVZ is now obliged to pay another US$15m ????
I thought the funds paid of US$20m that Cong sent back and AVZ placed in safe (cough, cough) escrow was the full payment for the Dathomir shares????
Am I missing something here???

Correct mate. I recall the announcement mentioned multiple fraudulent transactions or words to that effectI don't actually think it specifies exactly how much was stolen from memory?
Might be wrong but I feel like the assumption on tse became that the whole lot was stolen, in reality we don't know how much was stolen?
If that is the case you'd have to think the only way they are getting that money is if AVZ get a settlement .The ruling seems to suggest the missing $$ is our problem, as we now have to come up somehow with 15m to pay Dathomir.
If I read that correctly, anyway?
Although it was the escrow account set up at our behest by our lawyer. So you could see why people may point to us on this one. Even though that was only because Cong had sent back the funds that had rightly paid for the stock (as the latest ruling shows, though the 5% not ruled on yet).I would have preferred ICC to tell Dathomir the money was paid into the escrow account, AVZ fulfilled their obligations. If you didn't take it and left it there and someone else pissed off with it that's your problem.
I don't disagree, it's fucked that this amount of money can just be stolen through completely illegitimate transactions (story of our lives right?). Unfortunately, $15-20M spread across 3.5B shares is going to add like <$0.006 per share in value. Less legal costs. The only people that win are the lawyers, but if it meant enforceable imprisonment of the cunt and leaving him and his family completely broke, I'd still call it a win.Deduct the 15m from Comminiere's fines, and get the sticky fingered bastard lawyers later once the rest of the fine is paid and that can be used to go after them
It wouldn't be for divying out to the shareholders, you'd just deduct a portion of the fine in lieu of payment for the 10% we now unequivicolly have the rights to. That'd save time dealing with cong and lukusa and the escrow account. It'd give the DRC no legal reason to reneg for delayed payment, and we can flog this mine off for a higher price. Then we'd go after the escrowI don't disagree, it's fucked that this amount of money can just be stolen through completely illegitimate transactions (story of our lives right?).

This is interesting because the ruling says that AVZ legally acquired the shares. This tells me that a contract was completed and for the contract to be completed then the monetary side of that contract must have been completed. I am a bit confused about this.The ruling seems to suggest the missing $$ is our problem, as we now have to come up somehow with 15m to pay Dathomir.

Fantastic news folks, not that it was a surprise, cunt cong had no chance !
