Subject: IMMEDIATE INVESTMENT PROGRAMME VERY VITAL
Hello,
Firstly, let me introduce myself to you as Dr. Mohamed Hassan Kittani a
Senior Advocate and an experienced attorney in the protection of human
rights.
In this case, our client is the family of late Mobutu Sese Seko the former
ruler of the Repulic of Congo who was ousted out of power by late Laurant
Kabila whose son Joseph Kabila has now succeeded as the ruler of the
counrty.When the late Mobutu was chased out of power, he fled the country
and I was a major broker for his granted political assylum here in Morocco
where he eventually died of prostate cancer.I must let you know that I grew
up back there in Congo so I have close contacts and relationship with that
country.
Simply because the enemies of their regime are now in power,it will interest
you to know that our client as a family have suffered unspeakable
intimidation, humiliation and huge financial and other loss to seizures and
confiscations(over$600MILLION).These actually prompted our LawFirm's
taking-up the brief for their legal defense infact on compassionate grounds
as the situation now demands.
On the instruction of Madam(the widow of late Mobutu Sese Seko who is now
the head of the family),the essence of this mail is to seek to secure your
understanding and cooperation with regards to bringing to fruition an Europe
investment programme which will serve as the source of sustenance and
livelihood for the family but without traces to any member of this family
nor to any member of our Law Firm.Madam wants this investment program to be
a financial endownment for her children.
The fund in focus is $40.3m (USD) which is currently in the vault of a
security company in Europe as 2 crates containing Law Reports and
Promotional Materials belonging to our Law Firm – The need for false
content declaration is to prevent any manner of betrayal or blackmail from
any quarter. Actually we successfully shipped the crates to Europe with
diplomatic immunity by invoking the immunity accruable to classified
judicial documents under the HURILAW provisions.
As things stand now, I have been mandated to seek a neutral personality
without any previous relationship with any member of our client’s
family, myself nor any member of our Law Firm to cover for the collection of
the crates from the security company and subsequent channeling to rewarding
investment vehicles.As an extension of the mandate, that I should negotiate
compensation with you (for your assistance and cooperation) as a percentage
of the total fund value. You will need to propose your preferred
compensation plan for consideration by our client towards approval.
The arrangement is for our ground services contact (which was recommended
assist us by a diplomat fiend of the family) to liaise with a bank in Europe
where a solid understanding has been reached regarding your opening of a
special transit account where the funds could be lodged for channeling on a
bank to bank basis to an account which you will nominate for the pursuit of
this investmenty program.
The understanding reached with the bank is dependable and reliable and as
soon as I read from you, we should commence to fine-tune arrangements for us
to meet in Europe to mutually attend to the needful towards bringing this to
fruition but in a manner that will not expose our clients linkage nor our
Law Firms linkage to the funds.
It will be our pleasure to be able to cooperate with you on terms that you
may wish.
Thank you and God bless as we expect to read from you soon.
Dr. Mohamed.
