LEGAL
This well documented legal-case demonstrates the fraud committed by the Mining Registry Office (DRC). As long as companies around the globe are afraid to conduct business in the DRC, an organic influx of capital into the country is put on hold, the releasing of which will inevitably elevate the possibilities of wealth-creation to all Congolese citizens.
The Mining Registry Office has given mining permits to Dan Gertler, by illegally discounting those that have been granted legally via ministerial order, for which Thaurfin Ltd is the current legal owner. The judgement that holds value of title, ordering JEKA to transfer the 3 mining permits in question to Eng. Pol Huart, became definitive on the 1st December 2017.
​
On the 15th December 2017, Mr Jean Mbuyu (First Adviser to the President) visited with Pol Huart the General Director of the Mining Registry Office, Jean Felix Mupande: Mr Mupande disproved of this judgement. Consequently Mr Valery Mukasa, Chief of Staff of the Mining Ministry, was payed a visit. He confirmed that the 3 mining permits had never been cancelled, before having been granted to IME (Dan Gertler). The First Adviser to the President then attempted to commence a friendly conversation with Dan Gertler on the matter at hand, but he refused.
​
Dan Gertler’s reaction was to initiate a third-party opposition to a judgement from 2011. This opposition should never have been deemed admissible, for a whole range of reasons (see Summary).
Dan Gertler’s reaction is both interesting and instructive because by definition, it proves the validity of Thaurfin’s mining permits. Dan Gertler (DG) yet again finds himself involved in a fraudulent procedure, having no legal argumentation to cover the latter’s validity. It reveals his true identity of despising a countries’ justice system and its’ institutions. It also proves that particular parts of DRC authorities still show allegiance to the billionaire tycoon.
​
Thaurfin will be countering this feeble third-party opposition. Thaurfin also deems it necessary that a renowned attorney’s office spearheads the legal case from here onwards, enabling them to gain maximum access to all legal documents and to ensure no allegiance to DG.
​
Funding legal action in front of international courts will be supported through the sale of company shares, to both sue for damages suffered and to shine light on the corrupt handlings of the mining permits by part of DRC government. Subsequently, Thaurfin will recommence progress with the unique Mbomo-Mountains project.
