Since the takeover of the factory by illegal entities, Dr. Rajan Mahtani launched the case at the Lusaka High Court. However, it has been more than a decade since the launch of the case and no results have been announced till now. The case was so long stretched that it was handled by numerous judges during different timelines of the court proceedings. The latest judge handling the case made a positive announcement few months back when it was finalised that the court hearing will be closed. This means the judge will not be entertaining any more court hearings and the final judgment will be given based on the written and oral confirmations and evidences shared by both parties. It was a positive announcement for Dr. Rajan Mahtani and his team of lawyers as they have been waiting for a long time. Over the court of the court proceedings, Dr. Rajan Mahtani submitted numerous evidences which are strong enough to justify his case. Some of the biggest evidences submitted by Dr. Rajan Mahtani included signed shareholder’s agreements, financial statements proving serial investments on the factory by Dr. Mahtani as well as independent audit report conducted by an independent auditor. As per the audit report, the factory was established as a joint venture agreement and Dr. Rajan Mahtani was the sole joint venture partner. All these evidences are more than enough to prove that Dr. Rajan Mahtani is the sole joint venture partner of the factory.
However, even strong evidences and factual information are not enough when the judgement is influenced by corruption. When the final announcement on the case was made, it was shocking as it was given against Dr. Rajan Mahtani’s claims. This was shocking considering the evidences and information going in his direction. As per the reports, the other parties did not even submit any real evidence or document to prove their claims. This clearly showcases that the judgement is misdirected and influenced by external parties.
