nothing to be afriad of atull.
This fund is being held at the braamfontein branch of
FTBSA under Eastrand Investments in the name of
Mr.Smith Nugile as the trustee of the account. The
account has been declared dormant by the bank since
Jan2003.This sum of money was discovered during our
last general auditing of the bank's accounts and
holdings.Our investigation and inquiries in the
transactions of Eastrand Investments revealed that the
company was registered in 1988 by Mr.Smith Nugile a
citizen of Botswana.
I will arrange for the necessary back up documents \
paper works that the bank may be required in the
transaction and I will use my position and contacts
