Assallamu alaiykum,
I thank you for giving me a listening ear to my plight and worries as a widow, my reasons for soliciting your assistance is in regards to my been in exile in my own country where i was born and bread ,though we haven't met in any way, I was previledge to have your e-mail from Mrs. Ashiat Sagian (LATE) where i take refuge in the Government Lodge for a crime i know nothing about.
I am 36 years old widow, married to late Prince Jefri Bolkiah, Ex-Director General of minerals and resources in Brunei - Darusallam, though not late, but i truely believe have lost him because of the islamic constitutional barrier, you may have heared little or nothing about him, permit me to tell you that he is sincere and hard working and generous to many, though faith has turn out harsh on him.
Brunei as a small populated country of about 15 million people, 2/10 of these figure are foreigners migrated from asia and europe , Aside it's unspeakable values in culture and tourism, The Government through the international media accused my late husband of tax invation of $125 million United States dollars involving Amedeo Development and finance company which was headed by my husband before his resignation as a minister.
This led to his arrest in August 14th 2003 and after several interrogation he was found guilty and sentenced to life in prisonment according to the islam constitution.
Right now i fear the same, that was why i need your good service in claimming and managing the money my late husband deposited with a finance company, cash value $7.5m
If you insist on giving me a call, kindly do so with the number above. Pls, also endeavour to leave a voice message after calling should incase we weren't able to speak to each other.
I look forward to your good response.
