Hared Petroleum Bosses Face Arrest following a recently released Police Report Implicating them as party in Land that was Fraudulently Repossessed
By James Magoola
Some of the top managers at Hared Petroleum Limited are at the verge of being arrested following the recently released police report in respect to Plot 20, Lubas Road, LRV 232 Folio 20, that implicated them.
The report titled ‘POLICE REPORT IN RESPECT OF PROPERTY ON PLOT 20 LUBAS ROAD, LRV 232 FOLIO 20 JINJA MUNICIPALITY IN JINJA DISTRICT ALLEGED TO HAVE BEEN FRAUDULENTLY REPOSSESSED VIDE GEF 39/2013’ is addressed to The Executive Secretary Departed Asians’ Property Custodian Board. It is dated 22/11/2013 (REF:CIID/98/VOLVII/73) and authored by Jinja District CIID boss, D/ASP Willy George Ochoola with several copies to concerned parties but contains several anomalies.
“The registered proprietor of the property on Plot 20 Lubas road, LRV 232 Folio 20 was M/s Narandas Rajaram & Company (Africa) Ltd P.O.Box 14,Jinja and it had a lease of 77 years from 1st July,1948 of which it’s still running�, the report points out adding that on 7th June, 1983, an application for repossession of the above plot was written and signed by Mr. Arun Kumar Singh who claimed to be the Chief Executive of Birla International Private Ltd.
“In that application forrm, the applicant did not attach the passport size photograph which was a requirement. He also gave a wrong address of the registered proprietor at the time of expropriation of the property. All the relevant information like copy of the title deed, certified copy of memorandum and articles of incorporation, notorized power of attorney and certificate of incorporation in respect of the
property was not indicated in that application form,� the report states.
The report further pins S.N Gandesha & Company, the property management company that conducted the transaction as being fake.
“There is no record from Uganda Registration Services Bureau to show that S.N Gandesha & CO is a registered company in Uganda�.
The report asserts that on 12th March, 2003, the property on the plot in question was sold to Saleh Abdalla Munasser & Fatimah Saleh Abdalla Munasser of P.O.Box 977 Jinja at sum of $40,000.
“The transfer was signed by A.A.Shah as the Director of Narandas Rajaram & Company (Africa) Ltd and the second person signed as the director/secretary. The transaction was witnessed by Rose Mildred,
P.O.Box 2098 Jinja-Advocate. The common seal for the company was not put apart from signatures,� reads the report.
The report notes that in May 2003, application for consent transfer of sublease public land was made from Messrs Narandas Rajaram & Company (Africa) Ltd to Saleh Abdalla Munasser & Fatima Saleh. The details of land development carried out was a commercial building whereas in another application, consent transfer of sublease public land dated 12th July, 2013 was made from Saleh Abdalla Munasser and Fatima Saleh Abdalla (Ugandan Nationals) to Hared Petroleum Ltd at a consideration sum of Shs150, 000,000.
 This time the details of land development carried out were on vacant land. Information which was given in the two applications is contradictory.
“The sale and transfer of the company property was done by two people without a registered company resolution. No copy was found on record yet on 30th August, 2013, Abdalla Saleh and Fatimah Munasser
transferred the plot to Hared Petroleum Ltd�, revealing that on 19th January 2004 at 9:00am, repossession certificate was registered under Instrument No.340094 in the names of Narandas Rajaram & Co. On that very day at around 9:05am, that very property was transferred to Saleh Abdalla & Fatimah Munasser under Instrument No.340095. On 5th September,2013, the said property was transferred to Hared Petroleum Ltd under Instrument No.JJA 00000335,� continues the report.
The police report concludes by recommending for trial of all perpetuators of this illegal transaction.
“Depending on the above findings, it is evident that the property was fraudulently repossessed. Property on plot 20 Lubas Road should therefore be treated under Section 9(1) (a) of the Expropriated Properties Act of 1983. It should be reverted to the management of the Government and fraudsters brought to book�, Ochoola’s seven page report recommends.
