A family has been ejected out of their house(Chez John) because their own child swindled money in the name of family when he issued a cheque to withdraw money from family company account.
It all started when Nzeyimana Johnson 35, gave a non provisional cheque of Frw36 Million to one Kabonara Ramathan and he escaped.
Nzeyimana was not owner of the cheque, it was a cheque of a family company called Society Export World furniture represented by his father Kanimba John.
After Ramathan found that, it was a non provisional cheque, he decided to go to court Nzeyimana Johnson was convicted and sentenced to four years in Jail and ordered to pay a fine of Frw36 Million which was on that cheque.
After the court decision, Nzeyimana escaped so they decided to take his father’s properties.
A family lawyer Karangwa Vincent who defend the family in court says that the properties sold in auction has nothing to do with the business of Nzeyimana and those who accuse him.
Murekatete Matilde, wife to Kanimba John says that the decision of the court was wrong.
“For three months they always postponed the trail. The family company has nothing to do with this case. The company was not convicted.
The court decision to auction family property was unlawful moreover at a very low price of Frw420 Million instead of more than Frw1 Billion.”
Murekatete says, the family had always been intimidated.
Murekatete says that family requested court to ask Ramathan what kind of agreement was between him and their son in their business.
Niyomwungeri François who lives in German but who is now in Rwanda during one month said that among properties sold was his house with equipments he used in his business, and a plot.
He said that he doesn’t understand the reason why, they confused his properties and the one of Kanimba.
Court bailiff in Nyamirambo Kagamme k.Alexis said that the prosecutor accuses Nizeyimana Johnson, the plaintiff is Kabonera Ramathan the accused is Society Expo World furniture represented by Kanimba Jean.
The court received a claim of prosecutor and the claim of those who claim about their properties (plaintiff ) but the court did not acknowledge the claim of Kazungu who defend the society Expo World furniture because he doesn’t provide sufficient explanations to the case.
Based on the fact that, the society was owned by Family members, and both Nizeyimana and his father were allowed to use the same Bank account, the court decided Nizeyimana is guilty of giving a non provisional cheque.
In particular Nizeyimana is the one who was in charge of many activities of the family company.
Kanimba is requested by the court to refund Frw34 Million to Kabonera with acruing benefits and give him Frw36,680,000.
