The royal family in Dubai reportedly wrote a letter to the Kenyan government demanding KSh 4 billion in compensation. The family has connections with businessman Ali Zandi who owns a gold trading company, Zlivia, in Dubai - Zandi had entered into a business deal with Kenyan businessman Zaheer Jhanda who was to facilitate export of gold from DRC to UAE - The gold, however, never reached Zandi despite payments having been made and with reports indicating it was being held at JKIA - Jhanda dismissed reports that the gold consignment worth KSh 30 billion was confiscated at JKIA claiming it was still in the DRC The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has reportedly penned a protest letter to the government of Kenya demanding compensation for losses incurred in a fake gold scam involving senior Kenyan politicians and state officials. The UAE government is alleged to be asking for a jaw-dropping KSh 4 billion as compensation to the aggrieved Royal family, a demand that is feared could trigger a diplomatic row between the two countries. The said letter was allegedly sent after reports emerged Kenyan custom officials were holding at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) gold consignment belonging to Ali Zandi, owner of Dubai-based gold trading company, Zlivia, which has connections with Saudi royal family. According to the Africa Report magazine and other regional and international news outlets, Zandi had entered into a deal with flamboyant Kenyan businessman and politician Zaheer Jhanda who assured him he could source gold from Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and deliver it to him in Dubai.

According to the Africa Report magazine and other regional and international news outlets, Zandi had entered into a deal with flamboyant Kenyan businessman and politician Zaheer Jhanda who assured him he could source gold from Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and deliver it to him in Dubai. READ ALSO: William Ruto defends Uhuru over gold scam, accuses Opposition of tainting president's name Zandi was then later told his gold had been confiscated by Kenyan authorities at JKIA, after which the Dubai-based businessman allegedly wired KSh 250 million (US$2.5 million) to have his consignment, estimated to be worth KSh 30 billion, released. It is understood the foreign businessman was involved in the deal with a number of Kenyan businessmen besides Jhanda, his main partner in Kenya. Several months later, Zandi had not received his gold, and it was increasingly becoming clear he had been conned by his Kenyan partners amid reports that consignments of fake gold had been seized in Nairobi by detectives from the Doctorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI). Interestingly, Jhanda who is a person of interest in the explosive multi-million gold scam dismissed reports indicating the consignment was being held at the airport. According to him, the gold was yet to leave Congo. "The company contracted me for my consultancy services, which was purely based on advisory on taxation and exportation of the gold that was to come from the Democratic Republic of Congo," he told Citizen TV. READ ALSO: Businessman strongly linked to gold scam allegations says he doesn't know genuine from fake minerals The 40-year-old Jhanda who vied for Nyaribari Chache parliamentary seat in 2013 and tried again in 2017 but lost in both cases, further claimed he had never done gold business in his life before, and that this was the first time he was involved in such a business. He disclosed he actually holds a 12% share in Zlivia, the company that is said to be the complainant in the fake gold scam. His work, Jhanda explained, was to make sure the goods had arrived and that they paid taxes to the government so they could export above board. "You cannot have gold worth KSh 30 billion in Kenya and the government is not aware about it," he said in protest to allegations he was part of the fake gold racket that was defrauding foreign investors millions of shillings. Also implicated in the scam was Senator Moses Wetang'ula whose phone conversation with a man believed to be Zandi was recorded and shared on social media where it attracted massive reaction from Kenyans. Mentioned in the now controversial audio clip were President Uhuru Kenyatta, Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang'i and former prime minister Raila Odinga. The viral clip appeared to suggest the president, the ODM party leader and CS Matiang'i were part of the fake gold racket. The Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) Noordin Haji on Saturday, May 18, ordered for speedy investigation into the audio recording and warned against sharing of misleading information. |

A scam that caused a diplomatic hiccup between Kenya and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has triggered the latest in a series of gold-related investigations in Nairobi. The ruler of Dubai, Sheikh Mohammed Al-Makhtoum, sent an official protest note to the Kenyan government demanding the release of a gold consignment held by customs in Nairobi. A video linked to the case, which includes newspapers marked 16 March 2019 and shows different metal cases filled with gold nuggets, was also leaked online. Ali Zandi, the Emirati at the centre of the gold deal, runs a gold trading company in Dubai. He met a Kenyan who told him he could source gold from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The deal then followed a familiar route, where Zandi was told that his gold had been confiscated at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. Zandi then paid $2.5m to have it released, before finally flying out of Kenya after being shown fake news headlines that the police were after him. At one meeting in Nairobi, someone masquerading as interior cabinet secretary Fred Matiang’i asked for money and assured the Emirati that he would release his gold. Also mentioned in the letter from the UAE is opposition leader Moses Wetangula, currently a senator, who went to Dubai in September last year and assured Zandi that he would get his gold. One of Wetangula’s aides told People Daily that it was a business deal gone sour and that the senator had lost money too. The case involving Sheikh al-Makhtoum’s associate is just the most recent case of foreign nationals who have been scammed in gold deals in Kenya and Uganda. In the past few months, more than 40 suspected gold scammers have been arrested in Nairobi alone. Other than Kenyans, those arrested include Bulgarians, Tanzanians, Rwandans, Nigerians and Congolese. Another link among them has been a tendency to live in Kilimani, an upmarket part of Nairobi. In one case in Nairobi, a Russian national was scammed out of more than KShs20m ($198,000). Uganda is prosecuting a similar case where a South Sudanese national is accused of swindling $1.9m from two Ethiopians. Crackdowns by criminal investigators in Nairobi since last year have netted gold nuggets, fake gold and different fake currencies. Gold scammers are to Nairobi what Yahoo Yahoo boys are to West Africa. They are mostly young men who live large and chronicle their exploits on Instagram. In Kenya, they leverage their money to build political clout, which goes a long way into helping them get out of trouble. The primary ‘person of interest’ in the UAE case is a young politician named Zaheer Jhanda. Like many other suspected gold scammers, Jhanda created a high-profile public persona that involves vast amounts of money, political contacts and political ambitions. He unsuccessfully ran for a parliamentary seat in 2013 and 2017. Another person of interest, Jared Otieno, was arrested on Thursday. The police made a point of noting that they had also towed away a Porsche and a new Bentley from a home he had recently bought for cash. One of the other people listed as under investigation in the scandal was recently released from a five-year sentence in Tanzania, where he pleaded guilty to money laundering charges. The crackdown on gold cartels in Nairobi brings into focus how attempts to clean the trade in conflict minerals are failing. The amounts involved also suggest Kenya’s financial system is still a conduit for extensive money laundering. In 2011, then presidents Joseph Kabila (DRC) and Mwai Kibaki (Kenya) held an emergency meeting in Nairobi about a specific gold consignment that had been smuggled from the DRC. A senior official at the Kenya Revenue Authority had been assassinated because of the same gold shipment, which was never found. In September 2017, then cabinet secretary for mining Dan Kazungu issued a public notice that listed only one company, Aurical Kenya Limited, as licensed to carry out gold dealings. Only two others were listed to carry out mineral dealings other than gold. The chairman of Kenya Chamber of Mines, CP Mwangi, said that “What people are buying on the streets is brass, which once cooked, looks like gold. Some items are gold plated and unless you cut through, you will always think it is gold.” He also wrote that the government has bought an x-ray spectrometer for testing gold. DCI KENYA ✔ @DCI_Kenya #FraudAlert!!� #DCI attention has been drawn to an upsurge in criminal cases involving the procurement & sale of #Gold in the country. The Gold Scam has now reached alarming levels as unsuspecting foreign nationals are being swindled large amounts of money by the Fraudsters. Eastern DRC has nearly 200,000 gold miners who produce an estimated eight to ten tonnes, but only an estimated 200kg gets exported legally. The rest gets smuggled through neighbouring countries, and the crackdown in Nairobi is only a small part of a much larger international network. Kenya’s role as a transit point for gold from the DRC was the building block on which the Goldenberg Scandal of the 1990s was built. The export compensation scheme scandal saw the treasury lose billions of shillings for a mineral that Kenya barely mines. The gold on which the scandal was built was bought in the DRC, smuggled into Kenya and then re-exported as coming from Kenya. The high-profile gold racket does not seem like it will harm Kenya’s relations with the much UAE, but President Uhuru Kenyatta will have to show his Emirati counterpart that he is going after the scammers. Kenyatta already has the momentum from the previous crackdown on the rackets, but so far no one has been convicted of a crime. The cases bring into focus much that is wrong in the East African country, including gaps in policing, border points, customs and the financial system. In Nairobi, gallows humour now has it that some high-end pubs might have to close down as their regular patrons are now guests of the state.

A shaky cell phone video captured the moments before a Texas police officer shot and killed a woman who said she was pregnant. Now people on social media are divided over whether the shooting was justified. The officer was patrolling an apartment complex in the Houston suburb of Baytown late Monday when he saw a woman he knew from previous encounters, Baytown police said. A family member identified the woman as Pamela Shantay Turner. A witness' cell phone video showed the woman yelling at the officer: "I'm walking! I'm actually walking to my house!" the woman screams at him. She later says the officer is "harassing" her. The video shows the officer apparently trying to handcuff the woman, but she breaks free. The officer then fires his Taser stun gun, and the woman slowly drops to the ground. A scuffle ensues. The woman keeps yelling "Why?" but the officer isn't heard answering. As the officer keeps trying to arrest the woman, she flails her arms and yells, "I'm pregnant!" The struggle continued, and according to Baytown police, the woman "was able to gain control of the Taser and used it on the officer." In the video, the woman appears to reach for the officer, who stands back and fires five shots toward her.
