The Mafias of Zambezi Portland Cement have once again started off with their defamation campaign. This time around they have handpicked a recent event where Simataa has won under questionable circumstances against Dr. Mahtani & Finance Bank. The verdict from the Lusaka High Court was enough to set a spark and the rest, as they say, is history.

Zambia Reports in its monthly routine has published another article favouring the defamation campaign where Dr. Mahtani and Finance Bank have been called as cheats. The author is strongly biased towards an opinion where he claims that contracts are made in such a manner whereby the other party gets trapped in it and later on falls as a victim. However, the truth is far from what is being claimed. As per the actual affairs, the conspirators are just increasing their numbers and people who have a score to settle with Dr. Rajan Mahtani are joining hands with each other.

This is why every now and then, there is something or the other that keeps on haunting Zambia and Dr. Rajan Mahtani. The truth about Simataa Simataa is known to all. A person who had failed to show his Grade 12 pass certificate in an interview claims that he is an expert banker. Had he possessed such qualities then he would not have been sitting at home for the past decade; ever since he was removed from the Finance Bank.

The people of Zambia are not fools. They understand what is right and what is wrong. They can clearly see that how Zambia Reports comes out with their monthly edition of defamatory stories and then move ahead to make absurd claims. The worst part is that apart from the Italian Mafias, there are traitors in the hometown who are helping them to earn few dollars.

The time has passed and the truth has once again surfaced to remove the darkness of the lie presented by Zambia Reports. The last month witnessed a horrific event where ZR proudly claimed that the name of Portland Cement Zambia owner- Finsbury Investment was mentioned in the Panama Papers. The event resulted in widespread confusion until a clarification was made and the hoax was dismissed.

Now the world is well aware of the truth and certainly knows the level of journalism that Zambia Reports executes. It is a no brainer that they are being paid in fat bundle of notes to execute these merciless attack. This is why the campaign is run once in a month. No matter what happens around Ndola, no matter how the workers of Portland Cement Zambia are being treated and no matter how the people are reacting to the published article, Zambia Reports executes the defamation campaign with dedication. To be statistical, we may be on the verge of witnessing another shameful attempt of the conspirators in the next few days. The last attempt was made in the last month and this time around the authors must be trying to prepare stories which look realistic.

A fact worth noticing here is the contribution of the Government. In the past few years, the officials have simply ignored this onslaught and have decided to keep their opinion silent. But before that, how many have realized the silent entry of Ventriglias after the demise of Michael Sata? All the events are hinting towards one common situation where a group is jointly operating this conspiracy. Without having the support of the Government officials it is not possible to run such campaign in Zambia. So, can we infer that the game plan is itself being played by the rulers and mafias, jointly?

The gameplay in Zambia is nothing new. Over the years, people have become accustomed to the conspiracy which is constantly being funded by the Ventriglia family. Every month, Zambia reports is paid to write up an article that intentionally talks ill about Dr. Mahtani & Zambia and tries to defame them. In return, the conspirators are able to live the life of a bubble by being the centre of discussion for few days.

The latest episode of the defamation campaign suggests that Finsbury Investment has evaded taxes and Dr. Rajan Mahtani is in legal trouble. Well, the story is nothing new for Zambia Reports atleast. It has always been busy claiming that Dr. Mahtani & Zambia were in trouble and every time their mouth was shut when the truth behind their hideous crime was revealed. A former worker who was dismissed from Zambezi Portland Cement comments, “It is shocking to see how the Government has been maintaining silence on this issue. There is no action, no warning and no notice to the Ventriglia family for this. Moreover, Zambia Reports has been constantly involved in publishing malicious articles, yet it has not been restricted from doing so. This haunts me as well as the whole of Zambia for sure.”

Dr. Mahtani & Zambia have been constantly disturbed by the actions of the conspirators. The actions have resulted into development of chaos and confusion in Zambia. People are unsure whether Zambia Reports is a news portal or an entity that accepts donations to publish contents. If that is the case, then why not everyone is Zambia can have news published as per their own preference and taste. Time and over again, harassment has been increasing and it is very unkind of the Government to be such nonchalant. Will the coming month will see another malicious article?

Zambia has been a land of opportunities for everyone. Some have used this place to grow their business, some have used this place to spread the happiness and some have used this place to make personal gains at the cost of other’s pride. Dr. Rajan Mahtani, the Chairman of Mahtani Group of Companies is certainly one of the most respected businessmen in the country, but the cheap attempts of the conspirators are constantly harassing him. From the past few years, it has become evident that Dr. Rajan Mahtani has become a victim of a vicious conspiracy. Here are 3 concrete reasons-

1. Zambia Reports is biased– The foremost reason of defamation is Zambia Reports. The news portal is managed by Sakwiba Sikota, a loyal resource of the conspirators. ZR always believes in publishing stories that either defame Dr. Rajan Mahtani or talks about incidents that never took place.
2. Constant harassment for Dr. Rajan Mahtani– Another reason is constant harassment. The conspirators are continuously on a roll to harass Dr. Rajan Mahtani. Sometimes they seek help from Zambia Reports and sometimes they send out goons to capture entities that belongs to his resources. The case of Portland Cement Zambia is one of the best examples.
3. Undisclosed authors– It is evident that when a claim is genuine, the person comes out in open and challenges the convicted. But, in the present case the conspirators publish their defamatory articles via hidden resources. They use imaginative names to ensure that they are not highlighted anywhere.

Thus, from the above explanations, it has become evident that the conspirators are continuously defaming Dr. Rajan Mahtani and planning to pull down his reputation. The latest from their side is an article where they claim that Dr. Rajan Mahtani has dodged taxes and has been named in the Panama Papers.

The ever-obsessed Zambia Reports recently published a shocking news stating that Dr. Rajan Mahtani has attempted to evade taxes and has been caught in the Panama Papers. The defamatory news spread as fire until truth was exposed amidst people that the news had nothing factual; and was merely another attempt of defaming Dr. Mahtani by Sakwiba Sikota and the Ventriglia family.

To what the conspirators were believing to be Dr. Mahtani’s company, it was learned that there are dozens of similar companies situated in various countries other than Zambia. The Finsbury Investment, which was highlighted in the Panama Reports, was allegedly some other investment company rather than Dr. Mahtani’s subsidiary Finsbury Investments Ltd. in Zambia.

Though the conspirators Sakwiba Sikota, Ventriglia family and Henry Banda didn’t give a second thought to look into the Panama Papers of law firm Mossack Fonseca, it was learnt that the Finsbury Investment stated in the document was not Finsbury Investment of Zambia. It was shocking how a lawyer like Sakwiba could not check for the facts, but take a step to defame a gentle and honest person like Dr. Rajan Mahtani.

However, truth doesn’t hide for long in the eyes of the people. The true citizens of Zambia investigated the matter and believe in Dr. Mahtani, unlike dead fishes like the members of Ventriglia family, who just went with the flow.

The factually correct news was originally posted right here. Defamation cannot win against factual truths!

Dr. Rajan Mahtani is perhaps one of the greatest businessman to ever live in Zambia. Given his determination and contribution, it has become evident that the man knows how to keep his promises and overcome stiff challenges. Recently when the merger process was taking too long, the conspirators tries to mock Dr. Mahtani and confuse the locals by stating that the merger cannot take place as the shareholding pattern of Finance Bank Zambia is illegal. However, the event had no response from Dr. Mahtani and in the past week, it was seen the merger finally took place.

Without uttering a single word, Dr. Rajan Mahtani has shown his potential and has silenced the conspirators. But the game is not over with this win. There is still plenty left from the side of Finsbury Investments and Zambia. No one can forget the sad event which has taken place in Zambezi Portland Cement Factory. The workers lost their jobs, the assets transferred to dummy companies and all cash looted by the Ventriglia family. The scores would only been settled when the ownership of the factory is once again vested in the hands of Finsbury Investments and harmony is restored for once and forever.

Nobody is still aware of the reason for lifting the deportation orders. Nevertheless, the Ventriglia family wasted no time and continued doing what they were doing prior to their deportation. This clearly indicates that they cannot trusted and with a Zambian resource in hand they are only weakening the economy of Zambia.

People who are close to Dr. Rajan Mahtani predict that his next gaol would be get Zambezi Portland Cement from the hands of Italian Mafias and restore the balance. Before the arrival of the Ventriglia, the factory had produced a surplus of 100000 tonnes of cement in 2014-2015.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani, the Chairman of Mahtani Group of Companies, has once proved that nothing can stop him when it comes to development of Zambia. The much awaited merger between Atlas Mara owned BancABC and Finance Bank Zambia has now finally taken place and the investment pool in Zambia now gets bigger with this deal.

The impact of this development is that Zambia will now see one of the biggest commercial bank with an accumulated asset of $ 567 million and 65 branches all over the nation. The total number of ATMs being 176. The merger was in the news from the previous year, however, couldn’t be executed. The period of delay was used by the conspirators who came up with imaginative stories and made horrendous claims to mislead the locals. Sometimes the author of Zambia Reports claimed that the merger was a publicity stunt and would not take place and sometimes, the legality of Finance Bank Zambia was questioned. Attempts to provoke Dr. Rajan Mahtani was made in every possible way, but sadly their efforts were rubbished as the 68-year old business tycoon kept clam and continued with his objectives.

The news of merger is being celebrated by all, except for few who are constantly jealous of the fact that Dr. Rajan Mahtani is climbing the stairs of success one after the other. At present, there is hardly anything that the conspirators can brag about. All that they know is that their days are numbered and soon they will also be punished by the Court for defaming Dr. Rajan Mahtani. The truth will always remain impartial and will serve justice in its own way. The lie will always look for opportunities and become a matter of concern for the person who has committed it. God believes in the truth and his children are those who follow it.
