“DAYAL MANSUKHANI IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS MATERIAL ON THIS
WEB-SITE”
·
I Dayal M. Mansukhani, an
adult Indian inhabitant residing at flat No. 19, Malkani Mahal, Worli, Mumbai
400 0390. Do hereby on solemn affirmation states and declares as under.
·
I states that I am the
author and authorized manager/operator/ provider/ and/or Publisher of my
web-site ___________________________ I say that this affidavit cum
declaration is in furtherance and addition of my above website.
·
I say that if you open and
look into my above website you will find nothing defamatory or objectionable in
respect of the contents of my above web site. The contents therein are just the
story of my sufferance/life story, which I affirm to be correct and true.
·
I further states and submit
that if I do any wrong or commit any offence I am solely responsible for the
same and family should not be dragged in to the affairs of my self-published
web site. With all humility, I submit that I have not committed any offence in
publishing, distributing and circulating the above web site.
·
My above site is just the
reflection of the sad story of how being an Indian and Asian, how we have to
suffer at the instance of the Europeans. As the Europeans still consider us
their slave and their mindset has not changed despite more than 50 years of
Indians independence. Unfortunately, our own Indian minister and government do
not help our nationals stranded in the wrongful fist of the foreigner. On the
contrary, all over the world the national government protects their nationals
no matter where they are and how they are.
·
I have observed that in all
the countries the punishment for the offence committed are around the same
propronate. On the other hand, similar. However, unfortunately when it has come
to Indian nationals we always expose to bias treatment. However it is seen that
allover the world the courts order are taken as pious and unbiased, fair, just.
·
It is unfortunate experience
of most of the Non Indian Residents that when our nationals are in Europeans
nations the Indian Government does not help the citizens. As a result Indian
nationals cannot stay a single day in europium country without an Advocate/
Lawyer, and Real Estate agents or chartered accountant.
·
It has been the experience
of Indian nationals that if all these elements like Lawyer, Chartered
Accountant, and Real Estate agent joined hands with the judiciary they can
cheat any person from any part of the world no matter how influential he is.
Indian citizens are treated worst than tissue papers. If a person does not have
Permanent Residents in Australia or News Zealand he is not competent to
purchased real estate but these unscrupulous elements lure these innocent
persons to purchase the real estate and dupe him in millions of dollars.
Unfortunately the courts of law do not protect these poor people. It has been
observed by me that the judiciary is in their hands and thus cheat any
foreigner nationals.
·
These unscrupulous elements
do not stop there but also harass the children’s of these wealthy foreign
nationals and dragged them into frivolous litigation, I am fortunate enough to
bring all these facts on the website. And being the cautious citizen has a duty
to warn and caution other investors not to get into the net of these property
grabbers sharks.
·
I further say and submit
that when I brought all these facts before the world these very people have
involved me in frivolous litigation and sued me for defamation. Under the guise
of all these legal action they succeeded in attaching my real-estate property
and sale it in auction all in peanuts prize. I have spent around 7 years in
Europeans countries spent millions of dollars there but I was treated very
badly and for last seven years, my life was hell like a prison life. I
repeatedly sought help form Indian Ministers, Lawyers Influential persons but
left without help.
·
I further state that I went
to Australia with one Indian Lawyer Mr. Sanjeev Punalekar to save my property
from illegal and unauthorized encroachment. He did his best to defend and save
my property from these anti social elements but ultimately these people have
more influential and unfortunately there courts also are biased and have close
nexus with these unscrupulous people. You can find all of it in details on my
web-site ____________________ . All my family and children’s life were ruined.
I was duped with millions of dollars.
·
I am proud of my Indian ness
I have a wife who is Indian Women and who is willing to sacrifice her husband
for the sake of her Justice. She is willing to sacrifice her husband so
that I can remarry some Lawyer from these Europeans country and defend my
person and property. She feels that as she cannot legally defend my property
and my person atleast she can relieve me so that I can remarry some lawyer to
defend myself. Thought my wife is against my publishing these materials on the
web-site I believe in exposing those ant social elements, this resulted
in differences with my wife but I assume that unlimitedly she will realize that
this is all for a just cause. This is a misery of a person who loses 100
millions of dollars in litigation he is least responsible with.
·
I state that recently I have
taken steps to form a free legal aid global foundation and Public trust to
support the cause of Non Resident Indian who are left alone to fight for their
survival. Indians are all around the world and atleast 10 to 20 crores Indians
are residing in foreign countries, but they do not get timely legal aid/ or do
not afford costly legal assistance and hence they suffer. By way of my Public
trust I will provide them with cheap legal aid, by offering them membership for
just 100/- $. Per month. My team will consist of brilliant legal brain, a
software engineer, supported with 24X7 call centres reaching all the time to
the members. I will also provide them with video conferencing through out
India. Even if 1 to 2 lakhs person subscribe to my free legal aid foundation it
is not very difficult to spent 100 crores for the call centre through out
India. Within 2 months. My endeavor will be to provide legal assistance to my
member for 25$ per hours advice and actual documentation is really cheap. I am
sure all NRI can afford the same. On the contrary even if any foreigner applies
for the same we can extend our services for merely 50 $ per hours which they
can find very reasonable. I propose to spend 90% of my revenues on social
upliftment and education, so that more and more Indian can get proper and
adequate employment. This will also put our Indian culture on the top
ranking with better living condition. Even if an Indian employee earns $ 10 per
hours the remuneration is well adequate and this will result in better India.
·
I believe that around the
world the major man power supplier is India and China and if we do not grab
this opportunity we will miss the Bus. When foreigner can benefit from the call
centers situated in India why not an Indian should take lead and provide
suitable services to our nationals.
·
I have done business all
over the world, I was assaulted and attempted to be terminated five
times, but I know that god is great and the saver is important than the
terminator. I don’t mind losing my property if I can learn form my experience
and save others by cautioning them.
·
Recently I have also filed
one PIL in the Bombay High Court calling upon the Indian Government to provide
basic legal and medical assistance to the Indian Nationals who are out there
earning foreign currencies for the Nation. As I believe that our Embassies and
consulate do nothing besides the administrative work. If we cannot protect our
nationals form such tragedies then we have no right to claim anything from the
Non Resident Indians. I am ready and willing to have a joint venture with the
Government of India for this project of providing free legal Aid Global
Foundation, in order to bring India on the top ranking of nations.
·
I further state that for the
above purpose I need top website designer and technicians to upgrade my
web-site. Top grade Lawyer to provide legal assistance to my members, Chartered
accountant to look after the account aspect of our members. Anybody interested
can contact us on _______________________________. I assure that my eligible
employee shall earn $10 per hours minimum.
·
I further state that we also
need a team who is capable of making good documentary movies to highlight the
plight of NRI and expose the Injustice caused to them. We prefer Asians as they
are the only sufferers and victims of unjust treatment and human right
violations.
·
Whatever stated herein above
is true and correct and stated on my believe and faith, I am solely responsible
for the above statements and I have been read and explained the contents of the
above which I believe to be true and correct, and based on my instructions.

Dayal M. Mansukhani
§
FOR Free Legal Aid Global
Foundation.
· THE LONE BATTLE OF MR. DAYAL MANSUKHANI.
· MY appeal …………………………..
·
“FIRST AND MOST
IMPORTANT I am not asking for donation. SO NOT TO WORRY THIS IS NOT TO CHEAT OR
DUPE INOCENT PEOPLE by emotional blackmailing.”
·
I was working on this
project alone for last four years.
·
This is my open project and
any one can copy the same for the benefit of people at large.I left this
project open. Looking at my project Australia attacked me
·
I brought property at
Australia for the future of India, this property is freehold of Indian citizens
and beneficiary is my children’s, today this property is on lease for 25 years,
I declare that this property will be used for Indian benefits for 25 years,
this is not a property but is diamond quarry, this property will be developed
within 6 months and 30 to 40 million dollars loan can be taken on this
property. This loan amount can be invested in other property and use for Indian
future. Today I have two project, free legal aid foundation and internet media
advertisement on first year million dollar and after that 4 to 5 million
dollars income can be generated.
·
MY PLAN :-
·
I plan to have in each
branch only five men, who preferably would be Indians
·
I want Indian citizens to
eat properly and save money, stop starving. This project includes project plan
capital investment. If I run this project I will need only media, my
documentary movie will be made, and it will be translated in all language of
the India, and screened on television. This will expose Indians to the real
situation about Indians overseas and how they are been treated. And overseas
Europeans will learn their mistakes that not to mess with Indians citizens.
·
OUR HISTORY:-
·
Gandhi had alone fought and
got independence by peaceful manner in 1947 independent India, and now Indian
citizens are again suffering all over world, by the same superior mentality of
Europeans. We are suppliers of man power, is supplied from India, all over the
world. In business moreover and brain power are Indians these people are
responsible for the earning of European countries in dollars and called us man
power.
·
AS OF NOW-
·
Today the position is America,
United Kingdom, Australia man power is imported and Australia is original UK
jail, and mafia countries open jail, and now today only 20 million are its
citizens. The aboriginal are not considered there members.
·
Even for them on an average
Indian citizens, and big project is run from India, through telemarketing, call
centers they offer Indian citizens 15 to 20 thousand rupees but its not even
500 $ those who are in European countries earn more but more than 50% income
are taken away in tax and maintenance. Remaining 50 % income goes in
real-estate chartered accountant and legal assistance.
·
THE DISADVANTAGE-
·
There chartered accountant
charges minimum per hours 100-150 $ and lawyers charges 200-300$ per
hours, and real estate takes charges for property and they charge 7 to 10
percent commission and if all these joined hands they can make any overseas
bankrupt. These elements mostly when they apply for Permanent Residence they
are not eligible for buying immovable property until they obtain PR, but these
elements involves them in litigation and dupe them, by luring them to buy
property there and then illegally after lengthy litigation, get the property
attached and soled for through away prises.
·
MY PURPOSE-
·
MY plan is within the year
MAKE INDIA superpower, our Indian citizens will be happy and NRI will be happy
Indian citizens will earn in $ if government runs this project by charging 10
to 20 % charges India can become tax free countries. Today all world is
computer literate and no paper work REQUIRED and it is easily controlled and in
India has good knowledge in science and computer medical, legal judiciary.
·
If my project runs smoothly
India can lend money to world, as we become powerful,
·
When in 1999 BJP government
came to power in India tested atom bomb, America scared, and
America stopped help to India, there was pressure on India. India was helped by
NRI, India gave 7 to 9 % interest. But how big problem was solved as Indian is
no more in need of dollars. Today Europeans takes minister in their
favour and passes their project and overseas people come to India and sucks
Indian blood and through towards India bones by paying 500 $ therefore Indians
canot earn in inida
·
The honest Indians educated
have no bank balance as before salary they have to pay tax and the balance is
Nil. If somebody gets sick they face hardship so they do illegal work. Overseas
ministries do Hindu Muslim fight and maximum income is going to Pakistan war
and Indian Pakistan fight is enjoyed by these people. All this can be stopped
if 100 crores Indian will earns in dollars, in 3 years.Today I am
giving you plan from 120 crores population if 10% Indian overseas on good place
in 10 percent citizens becomes overseas citizens adopted thei adopted countries
rest work on visas
·
MY PROJECT IS -
·
If 75 lakhs citizens there
is in sad life and have no bank balance they cannot help there family by this
free legal aid project runs within the year 100 $ membership is charged and
this is through the media I am assured than within 6 months at least 75 lakhs
Indian citizens 75 lakh X 100$ = 75 crores income per year.
·
If all cities and before all
courts call centers is opened where at least 10 persons sits IN air-conditioned
OFFICES still the expenses would be maximum 200000/- US$ expenses is expected
all having interlinked like air India ticket.
·
If we open branches in every
city every where like in America there are 50 states and in each state 25
cities if we make our presence every where there will be 1250 call centers in
all over America. Even if there are more courts such 1250 accounting/legal
offices will be opened. Likewise all over the world such call centres will be
opened and lakhs of Indian citizens will work there and earn 25 to 50 $ per hour.
And lakhs of dollars will be saved from these money hotels, hospitals, gardens,
clubs, shopping centre will be opened all over the world. And profit will come
to India. Indian citizens within the year become super power and all will be
happy and crime will diminish, if all countries copies this project, even there
countries will become happy. In Asian countries government does not pay pension
for its unemployed citizens and does not help them as government is poor
financially. But in Europian countirs the British and European gets pension
form government and these people also cheat by working secretly, they become
drug addicts. How many Asian take pension form government for unemployment 1 %
NRI Indian 100$ per month will come to India and make them happy and this
people will pay happily as NRI does not care for 100 $, but it can help Indian.
If services is provided properly the NRI can pay more. This project will be run
on the finance provided by me and my residence will be donated for this
purpose.
·
THE OTHER INCOME-
·
I will also run Media
advertisement through kiosk business and earn income from that business. I will
have branches all over India and pay tax regularly.
·
I need one or two lawyer for
life long. The work will be allotted with the in proportion of 10 lawyers for
2500 members, through website. These lawyers will be exclusively
entertaining customer/ members, doctor will be recruitment. This free legal aid
takes transmission. Recording for transcript and provide video conference room.
·
In Australia real estate
services are VERY bad and lawyers ask for trust account deposit and if money is
not sufficient they leave up the job and justice is suffered. If Indian project
is run smoothly then other citizens will also become member. WE WILL CHARGE
foreigner different charges. Even British will join our project when project
successfully launched.
·
OUR ASSETS-
·
Indian brain is superior
brain all over the world brain.
·
Mahatma Gandhi has alone
made India independent. By peaceful manner. But Mr. Dayal Mansukhani has fought
his battle alone against the injustice caused to him against the minister’s
lawyer’s judges, etc. Indian one lawyer Mr. Sanjeev Punalekar verify from the
web-site goggle.com CLICK LINK-
·
This one Indian lawyer
fought alone for Mr. Dayal Mansukhani in Australia and fought the battled
there.
·
In Australia Queensland
ministries, included some court judges, everybody respect judges like a god.
And judge’s transcript proves that whether the judgments are right or malicious
biased arbitrary.
·
One Queensland liquidator
John Richard Park controls all queens land ministries and board of judges of
supreme court – click link for judges in Supreme court judges.
·
Please check all Supreme
Court injustice orders annexed herewith. However my lawyer Mr Sanjeev Punalekar
appeals against the orders the very next day and all order against the appeals
to appeal court check all appeal numbers --
·
The evidence of Injustice,
evidence in the transcript and state reporting bureau in the Queensland the
department also involves in the crime in delaying the supplying of transcript
of the proceedings. see how many complaint I have made for not supplying
the transcript this way I have suffered heavily both monetarily and mentally.
The Queensland ministry is suppressing the transcript to save there face as
they would be exposed If transcript is made public.
·
One Indian trust property,
the value of which is more than 50- million dollars and multimillion internet
project and low cost law firm project, all these projects have suffered
as all ministry joint hands together and attack Indian trust property
and liquidator sold this property illegally. I have complained with
all ministry but they supported him One Mr. Sanjeev Punalekar made
request and complained against this illegality committed by banking
officers, police, human right organization, crime department, human right
body, legal services, law society, and public trust
body everybody. Please see the concern link- here…
·
This way Indian property
Indian property and its reputation is maligned and shown disrespect.
Check\HERE.
·
Indian ministries in
Queensland and overseas ministries failed to give me adequate protection and
save my property from these thugs. I sought support from Indian ministries and
Indian ministries sent letter to Queensland ministries, Queensland ministries
just ignored the letter.
·
I just start new project
with a challenge to all Asian countries to copy this and should give its
citizens this services and facilities. Our Indian all one hundred twenty crores
and 10% are non resident Indian will benefit from this project.
·
Around 70% NRI are not happy
and all over the European countries they are without legal advice, Accountancy
assistance and real estate services not cannot survive for one day there,
without this services. So the thugs in those countries joint hands altogether
and dupe Asian national
·
All over European countries
more investment is from Asian countries but they are unhappy there, as they
have no citizenship and permanent residence status.
·
They have to pay heavy legal
charges $ 200 to 300 hrs per hours, and that too taken in advance in the trust
account and taking long time in disposing the matters;. And without the justice
they stop/drop the cases as if no money no justice. Chartered accountant is
also taking more than 100 $ per hours and overseas property without a
real-estate agents body corporate charge very high. Real estate service is
very poor and real estate agents collect money but do not give services.* check
real-estate link- for details.
·
Also check solicitors link-
My plan is to give 24X7 free legal aid with -professional services like
real-estate accounting to NRI members through call centers free toll free
numbers.
·
Our Indian citizens in the
Indian give very good services to Indian NRI in cheap rates through call
centers may be 25 to 50 $ per hour. If NRI citizens want man power from India
the NRI can benefit in all affairs of their business like obtaining visa
passport migration clearance medical accountancy support etc.

sound financial support. I am also ready to adopt an lawyer so that I can open
law firm in his/HER name of. For this I am ready to marry some lawyer. I will

If NRI’S AND Indians

MY DUBAI STORY—
· *DAYAL M. MANSUKHANI ALONE CRUSADER *
·
I WENT TO DUBAI IN AROUND MAY
1977. I AM A BUSSINESMAN MY BUSSIMESS IN DUBAI INCLUDES-Transportation, Cars
selling and buying, Man Power supply- Whole sale Textile, and Financial
support/Investor.
·
BESCO- It’s a Dubai Govt.
Undertaking run by Dubai Labor Ministry. One Al Mullah is the Owner, who is in
Business of Supplying Manpower from Asia and particularly from India.
·
Dubai Dry Dock is another
such company managed by the Dubai Government.
·
One RAJ BERNARD is an
Employee of BESCO holding a Managerial Capacity in BESCO.
·
I finance BESCO since 1995
to 1997 Dec. I financed around 3 Million Dhm. To this company. Out of which I
recovered around 1.8 Million and the outstanding is around 1.2 Millions.
·
In December 1997 we have
entered into New Agreement and BESCO issued me through Mr. Raj Bernard New
Cheques for Balance amount. The balance amount was divided into 12 different
Cheques, payable in installment.
·
All these 12 Cheques were
returned dishonored at different time and period. Besides these 12 Cheques 2
other Cheques were issued drawn at Standard Chartered Bank with Bank guarantee,
these two Cheques were also returned dishonored. ( all during the 8 months
period)
·
All these Cheques were
signed by Mr. Raj Bernard on behalf of BESCO.
·
Initially when the Cheques
were returned dishonored I warn Mr. Raj Bernard on telephone.
·
I filed a criminal case in
Feb 1998 in Dubai Court. For 2.23. Lakhs Dhm. The amount being of two Cheques.
( pending this case my other Cheques were also returned dishonored)
·
( In UAE according to its
law the place of issuance consideration is the place of filing of criminal
complaint irrespective of the place of issuance of Cheques)
·
Accordingly I filed
complained in Dubai, Sharjah, and Ajman. Against Mr. Raj Bernard.
·
All these cases proceeded
simultaneously in different courts.
·
The Dubai Court case
concluded in July 1998. The court ordered and directed Mr. Bernard to pay me
Cheques amount and he was fined for 2000 Dhm. This money was deposited in court
which was latter on given to me.
·
In sharjah court the court
directed the case to be transferred to Dubai court.
·
Similarly the Ajman court
also taken similar view.
·
In mean time the accused was
put in police custody for around 10 days.
·
Finally the Dubai court
decided the cases so transferred to it and dismissed the case holding that I
should file civil case.
·
I filed civil case in 2000,
being case No. 183 of 2000 the civil court ordered in my favour around 6 lakhs
dhr. Aggrieved by this ordered we both went in to appeal.
·
The appellate court
dismissed my appeal and allowed the appeal of Mr. Raj Bernard.
·
I went to Supreme Court in
2005 my appeal in Supreme Court was also dismissed.*
·
I instructed my lawyer Mr.
Bose to file civil case who following my instruction transferred theses cases
to local lawyer.
·
Thus I filed civil case
against Raj Bernard.*
·
In the mean time out of the
two Cheques drawn at Standard Chartered Bank one Cheque returned dishonored,
despite Bank assurance to Good Cheques. The Cheques returned with the remark
refer to drawer. When I confronted with the officers of the Standard Chartered
bank they told me that bank Guarantee Cheques have been discontinued, and there
is some fraud in issuance of this Cheques some Bank Officers might be involved.
·
Subsequently the Standard
Chartered bank dismissed its employee who has made endorsement on the Cheques.
·
I again represented the
Cheques with the Bank this time the remark was alteration in Cheques.
·
On the third time of my presenting
the Cheques the Bank remarked alteration in date.
·
I instructed my lawyer to
issue notice to Standard Chartered Bank, he accordingly sent notice on 2/8/98 (
Lawyer All Kaleen )
·
On 5/8/98 the Standard
Chartered Bank filed complaint against me with Dubai Police regarding Cheques
No. 404976 ironically this Cheques was never presented with the Bank)
·
The police sent the said
Cheques with the Forensic lab Dubai for investigation. Even in this matter thee
is no reference o Cheques No. 4049776.
·
The lab submitted the report
that the Cheques looks as of 1996, there were three dated on the Cheques put by
Mr. Raj Bernard and two Bank officers.
·
The Dubai Police sent the
matter to court.
·
The court fined me 2000 Dhm.
I paid the penalty and demanded the Cheques back.
·
Since the Cheques was not
returned to me I went to appeal court, the appeal court dismissed my appeal on
fine part but directed to return the Cheques to me.
·
Against this order both
myself and Mr. Raj Bernard went to Supreme Court where the humble court
continued my fine but ordered to return the Cheques back to me.
·
In the mean time the other
Cheques being chq No. 4049776 dated Oct 15 1998 matured and I presented the Cheques
in Mashreq Bank, surprisingly the Standard Chartered bank without returning the
Cheques to my Banker sent the Cheques to Dubai Police, which was informed to me
by Mashreq Bank.
·
The Dubai Police ordered me
o furnish bail Bond. And Cheques was sent to Forensic Lab.
·
In Feb 1999 the Forensic lab
sent its report that there is no illegal alteration on the said Cheques.
·
The public prosecutor again
sent the said Cheques for reexamination to the laboratory.
·
The second report of the
Forensic lab again concluded that thee is no illegal alteration on the Cheques.
·
The public prosecutor
directed the police to drop the case against me and return the Cheques to me.
The Cheques was returned to me on 28/4/1999.
·
I presented the Cheques with
the Banker on 29/4/99 the same returned dishonored on the ground that the
cheque was out of limitation.
·
Thereafter I went to London
before the Banking Ombudsman of Standard Chartered bank. I registered the
complaint in around 2000 Sept. in Oct 2000 the Ombudsman rejected my complaint
saying they do not have jurisdiction over the Dubai Bank.
·
I have not filed any legal
proceedings for the recovery of the cheque amount.
·
In Jan 1999 Mr. Raj Bernard
filed one case against me for recovery of 1 Million Dhm. The court ordered Mr.
Raj Bernard to submit account with the court. He could not submit the account
for nearly two years and as such the case was dismissed with costs.
·
Raj Bernard went to appeal
against the dismissal order, the appeal court appointed 3rd auditor for taking
account, incidentally I was also in Dubai during that period so I requested my
lawyer to produce account from my side to the auditor, I also personally
visited the office of the auditor but he did not entertain me saying he do not
have time.
·
Since Aug 2002 I did not
went to Dubai again.
·
The appeal was allowed and
court directed me to pay Mr. Raj Bernard 1.1 Million Dhm. My lawyer could not
produce counter account form my side.
·
As the audit done by the
courts auditor was incorrect I directed my lawyer to file case against the
auditor for submitting wrong account/audit.
·
My lawyer did not file the
case nor did he return me the case papers so I could file a case personally.
·
There are many email correspondence
between me and my lawyer.
·
I did not pay the 1.1
million and went to appeal in Supreme Court, the appeal was dismissed.

discharge of your legal liability. That you are also aware that out of the
cheques you have issued to our clients two cheques were involved in controversy
as there were allegation of alteration in the cheques.
·
That due to compelling
circumstances our client was forced to leave Dubai and shift to Australia and
thereafter to India. This has resulted into neglect of the cases filed by my
client against you for the recovery of loan amount. It appears that you have
taken advantage of this situation, by not fulfilling you legal obligation to
pay our client the loaned amount with legal charges.
·
That you must be aware that
initially the allegation of alteration on the Cheques were made by the Dubai
Prosecution which was subsequently dropped against my client as after through
investigation the Dubai Public Prosecution came to the conclusion that the our
client has no role in the alteration in the Cheques if any as the alteration
was done with the consent and express endorsement of the Bank Officers. The two
Cheques were Bank guarantee Cheques and as such the Bank was duty bound to
honor the same.

as he has no account with the Standard Chartered Bank and Standard
Chartered Bank has collaborated with you and cheated Our Client by issuing

Bank Guarantee our client immediately called Bank officers and informed them of
similar cheques issued by you with Bank Guarantee endorsed by the officers of
the Bank. The officers of the Standard Chartered Bank assured our client that
they will look into the matter as there were some discrepancies in the cheques
and certain officers of the Bank appeared to have conspired with you to issue
such guaranteed cheques. In any case after through investigation the Dubai
Police and the Prosecution discharged our client from any allegation and your
liability to pay our client is still valid and subsisting. You cannot take
advantage of the situation you have created in connivance with the certain Bank
officers. You have with the help of court auditors, and Legal

***** SOMETHING
ABOUT MY LITIGATION*********
· AFFIDAVIT OF MR. DAYAL H. MANSUKHANI IN SUPPORT OF
· HIS PETITIONS , APPLICATIONS AND SUBMISSIONS BEFORE
· NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL COURTS & TRIBUNALS
· INCLUDING HUMAN RIGHTS’ BODIES ALL OVER WORLD
·
I, Mr. Dayal H. Mansukhani, Indian adult,
residing at Flat No.19, Malkani Mahal, Self-Help Cooperative Housing Society
Ltd., 261, Dr. Annie Besant Road, Worli, Mumbai – 400 030, India state on oath
as under:-
·
I am affirming this affidavit to place on
record certain facts in a nut-shell for the information of various authorities
in India as well as abroad and also the Human Rights bodies all over the world
including organizations functioning under United Nations. This affidavit shall
be relied upon by me as general affidavit not only in various legal proceedings
but also in various representations and petitions that would be filed by me. I
am personally aware of the facts averred herein and I am affirming this
affidavit on the basis of experience actually undergone by me.
·
I am an Indian businessman who was in Dubai
for 25 years with my wife viz. Mrs.Pooja Dayal Mansukhani and three children.
All my children are major now. I was undertaking various businesses in Dubai
wherein my wife was my active associate and partner and she was fully involved
in business activities in Dubai. In 2002 we decided to migrate to Australia and
accordingly obtained Business 457 Multi Visit 4 Year Visa for our family
wherein my wife Mrs.Pooja Dayal Mansukhani was the applicant and rest of the
members of the family were dependants.
·
We went to Australia with the fond hope that
it is a democratic country and we would be in a position to prosper by making
best use of our business talent and our investible funds. We had ambitious
business plans and we shifted our entire wealth amounting to more than $ 2.5
Mio. to Australia.
·
When we reached Australia, we had a plan of
establishing a Multi Million Kiosk project. We had confidence that by
establishing hundreds of internet kiosks in hotels, motels and shopping
complexes, we would be able to generate income of atleast $ 1 Mio. every year
for an initial period of 3-4 years and this income would keep on
multiplying in future years. We also had plan of taking up property development
business. Accordingly we acquired a commercial property on 31st May,
2002 in Molendinar in Gold Coast in the State of Queensland. The purchase price
of the property was $ 1.17 Mio. and it had annual rental value of more than $
0.16 Mio. An Australian bank viz. Suncorp Metway Ltd. extended finance to the
tune of $ 0.90 Mio. which was repayable in a period of 10 years @ 0.12 Mio.
p.a. I say that the decision to purchase the property at Molendinar reflected
business wisdom and acumen of our family for the sole reason that the bank loan
was of a self-liquidating nature from a part of annual rent whereby the loan
would be closed in 10 years and the property would be fully owned by us with
only initial margin provided by us. We also had plans to take up redevelopment
of the property since huge plot of land was available and tenanted building
formed only a part of the property.
·
I say that there is a nexus in
Queensland amongst the property dealers, solicitors, and judicial officers due
to which a foreigner in Queensland faces a very serious problem as soon as he
buys any property. The population of Queensland is around 12 Mio. and there is
a boom in prices of real estate mainly due to foreign investment. Queensland is
a tourist place visited by millions of foreign tourists. It is also inhabited
largely by students from all over the world including students from India. Due
to tourism and heavy publicity, investors from all over the world are also
coming Australia for investing in Real Estate. When any overseas investor
begins his business enquiries, he receives tall promises and a very optimistic
approach from local real estate agents and solicitors. Such investor gets lot
of encouraging responses by explaining to him lucrative return on investment,
lower bank rate, assured income from tenants, etc. However the investor is not
informed about a number of shortcomings.
·
After I purchased the property and found that
the tenants were misusing the same, I initiated legal proceedings against the
tenants. Unfortunately, the local solicitors who are in the habit of hatching
conspiracies against overseas investors and finally selling off their
properties so as to share their own booty deliberately sabotaged my
litigation. These solicitors also left me in lurch with regard to my
dispute with an Australian landlord in respect of my internet business.
Finally while I went on receiving setbacks in my cases against my own tenants,
my own landlord – even though large surplus amounts paid by me were lying with
him- succeeded in obtaining favourable court orders against me. I was
running an internet café wherein the cost of computers and equipments was more
than $ 3,00,000/- . Due to pressures from the landlord, I decided to
shift to another premises and sold off the internet business for just a sum of
$ 51,111/-. The local solicitors conspired with the buyer and filed damage
suit against my wife’s company and my wife even though both of them were not
involved in the dispute in any manner.
·
I realized that there was a clear conspiracy
between the local solicitors, estate agents, police authorities and the courts
of law. The economy of Queensland is thriving on the income on real
estate. The auction of investors’ properties is a routine feature in the
place. Legal advice and litigation is very costly. Nobody is
interested in giving justice to overseas investor. On the contrary, once
the investor brings in his fund and makes and investment, everyone is
interested to get him declared bankrupt and auction his property. The
investment brought in by him adds to the wealth of Queensland. In the
process, there are several rounds of litigation and several rounds of
action. Both real estate agents and solicitors become richer and
richer. They share their gains with the judges. Naturally, the
judges are biased in their favour and always give adverse judgements against
overseas investors. I was victim of this situation.
·
Even though the dispute was between myself and buyer of internet
business, the District Court of Southport went on issuing orders such as Mareva
order against the property of our family trust (wherein my wife’s company Good
Luck Holdings Pty Ltd was a trustee), ordering costs against all defendants
including the company etc. Finally taking advantage of the fact that my
wife was then out of Australia, a liquidation petition was brought against her
company for a petty sum of $ 7000/- at a time when the balance in bank accounts
of the company was more than $ 17,000/-. When I appeared before Judge Ms.
Margaret White of the Supreme Court of Queensland and volunteered to make
payment of the amount involved in the petition, she simply rejected my pleas
and ordered winding up of the company.
·
GoodLuck Holdings Pty Ltd. was ordered to be
liquidated on 31st October, 2005 . This company was the Trustee of
GoodLuck Trust which held immovable property worth $ 7-8 Mio. in Molendinar
area of Gold Coast. The Court had appointed two persons to act as Liquidators
viz. MR. JOHN RICHARD PARK AND MR. LACHLAN STUART MCINTOSH . These two
persons are accountant and are partners in the top Accountant Firm viz. Korda
Mentha in Queensland which engages more than 50% of the solicitors in Brisbane
. Every alternate solicitor in Brisbane has received fat fees from this firm at
some or the other time in his careers (The beneficiaries include judges since
judges also are solicitors before their appointment as judges).
Naturally, the solicitors lobby is fully with Korda Mentha and they also
influence the judges. No judge would dare to give judgement where Korda
Mentha is to be adversely affected.
·
Every year, individual partners of Korda
Mentha sell out thousands of properties in auction. This brings in
large income to the real estate agents as well. Similarly there are
malpractices in sale since in all cases the victim is overseas investor who is
unable to fight out due to the nexus between judiciary, Korda Mentha, local
solicitors and estate agents.
·
Taking advantage of various handicaps faced by
us, the Liquidators obtained orders from the Supreme Court on 13th
January, 2006 to appoint themselves as Receivers of the property of the Trust
and to sell and realize the assets of the Trust. At that time, we were in India
and we sought adjournment since I was undergoing treatment for my heart
ailment. I had three heart attacks in my life and I have also undergone a
by-pass surgery. Unmindful of these woes, the liquidators refused to
agree for adjournment and went ahead with the case to obtain orders to sell off
the property.
·
Tenders were closed on 11th May,
2006 . As per the Supreme Court’s order dated 13th January, 2006 ,
the Receivers (Liquidators) were required to give a notice of 7 days to my wife
viz. Mrs.Pooja Dayal Mansukhani (who was the appointer of GoodLuck Trust)
before entering into any sale contract. The Receivers did not give any notice
of 7 days. My wife Mrs.Pooja Dayal Mansukhani was repeatedly reminding the
Receivers that they should give 7 days” notice to her so that she can take
steps to safeguard the property from sale. However, in violation of the court’s
orders, the Receivers refused to give 7 days’ notice.
·
There was a loan of $0.7 Mio. against the
property from Suncorp Metway Ltd. of which I was the guarantor. On 16th
May, 2006 I repaid this loan and entered the position of first mortgagee of
Molendinar property under the right of subrogation. Thereafter I notified the
Receivers that I am objecting to the sale of the property. My daughter Ms.
Deena Dayal Mansukhani had brought a number of buyers for the property for an
amount as high as $ 8 Mio. However, the Receivers discouraged every buyer and did
not accept any such offers.
·
While communicating the decision of the
Supreme Court, the Receivers had informed us that vide letter dated 13th
April, 2006 they would be selling the Molendinar property by tender and the
tender would close on 27th April, 2006. My daughter commenced
correspondence with the Receivers and advised them that our children would like
to raise funds and approach the Supreme Court with an appropriate proposal so
that sale of the valuable property at Molendinar can be avoided. A series of
emails were exchanged between my daughter and the Receivers wherein documentary
proof was furnished to the Receivers about the fact that a balance of more than
$ 1.6 Mio. was lying with Australian Bank viz. Suncorp Metway Ltd. My daughter
expressed willingness that the entire liability of Suncorp Metway Ltd. which
was first mortgagee of the property to the tune of $ 6,83,000 would be closed
and the amount of entire claim of Dr.Thamir Karam (i.e. the buyer of my
internet business who had obtained liquidation orders against my wife’s
company) would be deposited either in the court of with the Receivers. She
invited the attention of the Receivers to the fact that Dr.Thamir Karam was not
the creditor of the Trust. He had obtained a judgement against GoodLuck
Holdings Pty Ltd. and there was no reason to sell the property of GoodLuck
Trust unless judgement related to GoodLuck Trust. Nevertheless, she expressed
willingness to deposit the entire claim of Dr.Thamir Karam so that it can be
left to the Supreme Court to decide whether Dr.Thamir Karam was a creditor of
the Trust or whether he was a creditor only of the company. At this juncture,
the Receivers came forward with a strange condition that for such a proposal,
consent of Dr.Thamir Karam was required to be obtained by my daughter.
Dr.Thamir Karam was never a creditor of the Trust. He had only tried to
arm-twist the Mansukhani family by creating threats for the property at
Molendinar. If we had approached him for his consent, there would not be any
chance of his giving consent without our agreeing to make full payment of his
claim. He was an interested party having a direct clash of interest with the
beneficiaries of the Trust. It was unbecoming on the part of the Receivers in
their capacity as Officers of the court, stipulating such a condition. Even if
the Receivers had sold the property, they would still have to obtain direction
from the Supreme Court whether Dr.Thamir Karam was creditor of the company or
creditor of the Trust. Instead of making them to wait for the sale of the property
and seek clarifications from the Supreme Court, they were making the process
easy by deposing the amount immediately so that the Supreme Court can quickly
dispose off the claim of Dr.Thamir Karam. In any case, Dr.Thamir Karam had to
satisfy the Supreme Court and he was not concerned whether the amount deposited
into the Supreme Court came from out of the sale proceeds of the property or
from deposits made by the beneficiaries of the Trust. However, if his consent
was made a pre-condition, then he would give unnecessary importance and locus
standi whereby he would bring undue pressure on us to settle his illegitimate
claim against the Trust, even though he was not at all creditor of the Trust.
My daughter pointed out this position to the Receivers and made several pleas
that consent of Dr.Thamir Karam should not be made a pre-condition as no
prejudice was caused by the proposal to Dr.Thamir Karam. Even then the
Receivers refused to change their stand and insisted that consent of Dr.Thamir
Karam was compulsory. We intended to deposit full amount in the court so that
the sale of the property could be avoided. We requested Suncorp Metway Ltd. to
act as our Trustee, engage a lawyer for us and deposit the entire amount into
the court so that the sale of the property could be stopped. We also requested
the office of Public Trustee (which is a statutory office in Queensland) to act
as our Trustee. However, both Suncorp Metway Ltd. and the Public Trustee
refused to act as our Trustee. Thereafter we informed the Liquidators
(Receivers) that we shall deposit the entire amount with the Receivers only.
The Receivers again refused and insisted that consent of Dr.Thamir Karam was
necessary. This left us with no option but to directly approach the Supreme
Court. We were completely confused and helpless as to why the Liquidators
were pent upon selling our property. We forwarded our application to the
Supreme Court directly wherein we showed our willingness to deposit the entire
amount mentioned by the Liquidators in their first affidavit and we attached
our bank statement to our application to show that we were really holding
balance for making deposit.
·
On 10th May, 2006, the Supreme
Court heard our application. We informed the court that we were making on the
spot payment to the Liquidators/ Receivers and our request was only to stop the
sale. However, the Supreme Court heard elaborate arguments for nearly half an
hour wherein we time and again mentioned that we were ready to deposit the
amount on the spot without any conditions and our only request was to stop the
sale. The court however, rejected our application at the end on the only ground
that the leave was not granted to Mr.Sanjiv G.Punalekar to appear for Dayal
& Sons International Investors Pty Ltd. and that the court wanted us to
engage only an Australian solicitor. I say that the court first allowed
Mr.Sanjiv G.Punalekar to put all his arguments and when all his arguments were
exhausted when the court was convinced that the sale was illegal and the
Receivers had some personal interest in the sale, the court rejected the
application not on merits but on technical grounds that an Australian solicitor
should have represented Dayal & Sons International Investors Pty Ltd.
·
At this juncture, Mr.Sanjiv G.Punalekar even
volunteered that he will re-submit the application through an Australian
solicitor within a short time and his only request was to accept the payment on
the sport to stop the sale till a fresh application can be made. Even then the
request was rejected. All these events are duly recorded in the transcripts of
hearing held on 10th May, 2006 before the Supreme Court Judge
Mr.Chesterman J. He immediately engaged an Australian Solicitor and started
taking steps to safeguard our interest to the extent possible. First of all, I
repaid the entire debt of Suncorp Metway Ltd. amounting to $712,000 from out of
the funds given by Dayal & Sons International Investors Pty Ltd.
Thereafter, I became the first mortgagee of GoodLuck Trust by virtue of right
of subrogation as guarantor. A notice was given to the Receivers that as first
mortgagee, I was objecting to the sale. In the meantime, the date for closure
of tender was extended by the Receivers upto 11th May, 2006. Hence
the appointer of the Trust viz. Mrs.Pooja Dayal Mansukhani issued a notice to
the Receivers on 15th May, 2006 reminding the Receivers about their
duty to give 7 days’ notice before entering into any sale contract. Strangely
the Receivers responded by stating that they would not be giving any notice. In
the meanwhile, my daughter had submitted a number of sale offers to the agents
of the Receivers, including an offer as high as $8 Mio. However, in some or the
other pretext, the Receivers chased away these prospective buyers. I am having
copies of correspondences made by these prospective buyers and the manner in
which the Receivers deliberately discouraged these prospective buyers from
submitting their bids. As the Receivers were refusing to divulge any details
about the sale offers received by them and about their intentions of entering
into sale contract, my daughter made an offer to buy the property for $ 4 Mio.
and in the alternative to take the property on 25 years’ lease at lease rent of
$ 2,50,000 per year. She in fact forwarded the bank cheque of $ 2,50,000 to the
Receivers in advance alongwith proof of readings of another cheque for $
1,50,000 thereby making 10% of total sale offer of $ 4 Mio. Thus the
Liquidators were given two options. Surprisingly, at this juncture, the
Liquidators came forward with the truth that before the period of 7 days could
complete, from the date of closure of tender, they had agreed to sell the
property to a company called M/s. Heday Pty Ltd. for just $ 2.7 Mio. by accepting
down payment of only $ 10,000 and they had also increased the period for
payment from 30 days to 60 days. Thus the Liquidators had sold the property by
private sale at a throwaway price behind our back and without giving 7 days’
notice to us while turning down better offer for $ 8 Mio.
·
While discouraging the offer for $ 8 Mio., the
Receivers had given in writing that the prospective buyer need not be present
in Australia and acceptance of offers will only be on the basis of Written
offers without any negotiation or discussion. However, in reality, they held
negotiations with M/s.Heday Pty Ltd. in a clientele manner and sold our
property at a throwaway price.
·
The property was allegedly sold on 18th
May, 2006. However, when we repaid the loan of Suncorp Metway Ltd., Suncorp
Metway Ltd. informed us two days in advance i.e. on 16th May, 2006
itself that the contract for sale was executed by the Receivers. This was
definitely suspicious and fishy.
·
When my daughter wanted one day’s time from
the Receivers so that the prospective buyer for $ 8 Mio. would reach Australia
and negotiate with the Receivers, the Receivers informed in writing that there
was no need for anybody to be present and that they would accept the sale offer
on the basis of written tenders only. The terms of tender were - payment of 10%
as advance and balance 90% to be paid within 30 days. When the Receivers were
not responding to us in any manner, my daughter tendered advance of $ 4,00,000
and made an offer for $ 4 Mio. She also made alternate offer of 25 years’ lease
@ $ 2,50,000 per year so that while generating income of$ 6.25 Mio., the
property ownership would still remain intact with the Trust. It is pertinent to
note that there was only one claimant against the Trustee Company (Here again
the claim was against the company and not against the Trust) for a sum of only
$ 112,000.
·
On 18th May, 2006 , the Receivers revealed the
truth to us for the first time that they had sold the property by private sale.
One M/s. Heday Pty Ltd. had made down payment of only $ 10,000 and made an
offer for only $2.7 Mio. Secondly, as against the period of 30 days, 60 days
time was given to Heday Pty. Ltd. Thus the Receivers had committed a number of
irregularities.
·
We were surprised about the manner which the
Receivers had sold the property at a throwaway price. It was necessary for us
to stop the sale, hence we had no option but to go before the Supreme Court.
Accordingly, an application was filed on behalf of my daughter Ms.Deena Dayal
Mansukhani. This application was heard by Judge Ms.White on 5th
June, 2006 . In this application, we had pointed out various following
irregularities on the part of Receivers.
·
I appeared in person alongwith my Indian
lawyer Mr.Sanjiv G.Puanlekar. All the documents were submitted before the
Supreme Court on affidavit. The application was signed by me in my capacity as
power of attorney holder. I also stated on affidavit that my daughter Ms.Deena
Dayal Mansukhani did not have valid Visa after expiry of previous 4 Year Visa
in February, 2006. I had also submitted the detailed outline of written
submissions pointing out the various grave irregularities committed by the Receivers.
·
It is pertinent to note that both the
Receivers were partners of a Chartered Accountant Firm viz. Korda Mentha
which was also in the activity of Real Estate Advisory business and hence the
Receivers had personal vested interest in selling the property at a throwaway
price. There was clear fraud committed by the Receivers against the Mansukhani
family. We are Indians and our Visa had expired. In May 2006 One Year Business
Visa was given to me and my Indian Lawyer Mr.Sanjiv G.Punalekar only for the
specific reason of fighting out our legal cases.
·
Judge Ms. Margaret White heard our application
on 5th June, 2006 . This very same judge had ordered the
liquidation of the company (Good Luck Holdings Pty Ltd) on 31st
October 2005 . Still we went to the Court Room with the fond hope that we would
get justice. We did not expect the Receivers to take a cooperative stand. This
is because we had exposed various irregularities on the part of Receivers. We
had also made complaint against the Receivers to Crime & Misconduct
Commission and a copy of our complaint was tendered to the Supreme Court on
Affidavit. Thus documentary proof was available before the Judge Ms. White
whereby she fully knew that the Receivers had engaged the following
irregularities.
·
They sold our property at a throwaway price.
(i.e. $ 2.7 mio as against an offer of $ 8 Mio)
·
They made private sale in a secretive and
clandestine manner.
·
They increased the period of payment from 30
days to 60 days.
·
Instead of down payment of $ 2,70,000, they
accepted down payment of a paltry sum of $ 10,000.
·
Suncorp Metway Ltd. was knowing about the deal
on 16th May, 2006 , when the deal was signed on 18th May,
2006 . (We had a written confirmation from Suncorp to this effect which
we appended to our affidavit)
·
They turned down the offer of $ 8 Mio. by
giving in writing that nobody’s presence was required for negotiation whereas
this particular sale was private sale through negotiation. Thus a buyer with an
offer of $ 8 Mio. was chased away for undue benefit of another buyer with an
offer of $ 2.7 Mio.
·
My own daughter’s proposal with two options of
outright sale of $ 4 Mio. and alternate offer of lease with assured income of $
6.25 Mio. were rejected. Only after our making such offers the
Liquidators/Receivers told us the truth about the fraudulent sale conducted by
them.
·
When hearing commenced on 5th June
2006 before Judge Ms. White, The Liquidators’ lawyer did not go into the merits
of the case. They objected to my presence into the Court Room. They produced a
judgement of the court whereby appearance of a litigant through non-lawyer was
a matter of discretion of the court. The Judge Ms. White decided to accept the
contention of Solicitors of Liquidators. She made it clear to me that she would
not hear my application. At this stage I pleaded and begged that my daughter
did not have any Visa. If my daughter was given Visa, she would have come. I
also brought to her the notice that if I was not given any audience, I had no
difficulty at all. Least what I expected from her was to read the papers on
record and to take decision on merit. The validity of power of attorney
in my favour was not in dispute. The application was accepted by the
Registry. It is common that legal documents including petitions can be filed on
the basis of power of attorney. If my behaviour or mannerisms were
disliked, I would not have opened my mouth. What I wanted was that the
application should have been decided on merits particularly when such a serious
fraud was committed.
·
The previous judgement/ case-law produced by
the Solicitors of the Liquidators was about personal appearance and personal
audience and even in that particular judgement, though the court disallowed
personal audience to third party, the court had in fact decided the case on the
basis of documents on record. However for reasons best known to Ms. White, she
went one step ahead even to throw away the papers that I had filed.
·
I am holding the transcripts of the hearing
which shows that the Judge Ms. White took a very long time to read my
application. She read every bit of paper and she came to know that it was a
clear case wherein the Receivers who were locals of Australia and who were
white by race were committing heinous crime against the Indian family. She read
the papers completely and then she decided to reject my application on the
grounds raised by the Liquidators.
·
The said Judge Ms. White did not stop only at
taking technical stand but she went ahead to express venom and vengeance
against me personally by adding her personal knowledge into the issue.
Previously, when the company was liquidated on 31st October, 2005 ,
this very same Judge Ms .White had heard my matter in the court and a winding
up order was passed for a sum of $ 7,000 even though I had personally
volunteered to deposit the amount into the court on the very same day i.e. 31st
October, 2005 . At that time our company’s bank balance was more than $ 17,000.
Nevertheless at that point of time the Judge Ms. White had rejected my plea to
deposit $17,000.
·
While pronouncing her judgement on 5th
June, 2006 , Ms. White imported her personal knowledge and personal prejudice
into her judgement and she made reference to my previous appearances before
her. This clearly showed that she was prejudiced and she had personal hatred
against me. She read the papers and specifically inquired as to who drafted the
same. The Indian lawyer accompanying me explained that the drafting was done by
him. This fact is recorded in the transcript. Thus Ms. White was aware
that the papers were duly drafted and there was no harm in taking a decision on
the basis of documents. However, when she realized that action would be
warranted against white persons for a crime against an Asian, she decided to
take an extreme stand and hush up the matter. If the transcript is carefully
heard, you will realize that Ms. White took a long time to read my papers and
after reading my papers, she decided to throw her weight behind the Liquidators
who belong to her race. Before that she did inquire about who drafted my
papers. While doing so, she could not control herself and went on
recording some previous personal experiences which was not even on the records
of the court. Thus Ms. White acted with vengeance, prejudice and with a feeling
of racial discrimination.
·
I am not an educated person and may be that I
have sometimes lacked in my mannerism and my language. However, this is not the
reason to victimize my whole family to sell our property of $ 8 Mio. for a
paltry sum of $ 2.7 Mio. Ms. White clearly acted with a feeling of racial
discrimination against me. In Australia there is a system of recording the
transcripts. Naturally, she had her own limitations in making racial remarks
against me. But what is important is her conduct which was racial.
·
My Indian lawyer Mr. Sanjiv G. Punalekar would
also testify as my witness. He edits a magazine named “Civil Liberties”, which
is registered as a newspaper with the Registrar of Newspapers in India . He
successfully fought various public interest litigations in India . The website
search of www.google.com with the words “Punalekar” would reveal his Public
Interest Litigations (PIL) in India and his contribution to the Human Rights
activities in India . When I requested the Judge Ms. White to allow him to act
as my Mckanzy friend, she refused. He was a witness to the whole drama and has
also seen the expressions of contempt which she showed towards me while
throwing out the legitimate application filed by me as a power of attorney
holder for my daughter. Mr. Punalekar is my witness who has seen her
contemptuous expressions and manner in which she ill-treated me. This is also
substantiated by additional import of facts by Ms. White into her judgement. On
one hand Ms. White threw out my application on technical grounds and on the
other hand she went on making personal remarks against me which were irrelevant
to the issues of the case. It is necessary to curb such tendencies.
·
The Liquidators viz. JOHN RICHARD PARK AND
LACHLAN STUART MCINTOSH committed a number
of irregularities which should have been punished by the judiciary. Some
of these irregularities are as follows:
o The Liquidators’ refusal to give 7 days’ notice in
violation of Supreme Court orders.
o The Liquidators’ action of selling the property even before
7 days were completed from the date of closure of tender.
o Suncorp Metway Ltd. having knowledge in advance i.e. on 16th
May, 2006, when the contract was entered on 18th May, 2006.
o Acceptance of down payment of only $ 10,000 as against the
application to reject the tender where down payment was less than 10%.
o Extension of time period from 30 days to 60 days.
o Turning down better offer of $ 8 Mio.
o Turning down offers of my daughter for 25 years’ lease
generating income of $ 6.25 Mio. per year by keeping the property ownership
intact with the Trust.
o Declining my daughter’s proposal for $ 4 Mio. when down
payment of $ 4,00,000 was already made.
·
Today I have been denied justice.
However, I am not going to keep silent. I shall knock the doors of the
Human Rights Bodies all over the world and shall seek justice. I am in the
process of making a documentary film on my plight. I am also arranging to put
up a website depicting this grave injustice. When Idi Amin of Uganda did
similar things to investors from Europe, he was declared to be a violator of
human rights. The question that I would raise would be –“ Is this logic
applicable only to Uganda or would it apply to Australia as well?” I
shall keep on raising this issue till I get justice.

Sub.: Complaint against Ms.White,
Judge of Supreme Court of Queensland, who has acted
in unjust and unfair manner on the basis of racial
considerations.
Sirs,
I, Mr. Dayal H.Mansukhani, Indian adult, residing at
Flat No.19, Malkani Mahal, Self-Help Co-operative Housing Society, 261,
Dr.Annie Besant Road, Worli, Mumbai – 400 030 (India), make the following
submissions:-
·
My personal details are as follows:-
Name
: Mr.Dayal
H.Mansukhani
Address
: Flat No.19,
Malkani Mahal,
Self-Help Cooperative Housing Society,
261, Dr.Annie Besant Road, Worli,
Mumbai – 400 030.
Nationality
: Indian.
Age
: 57 years.
Name of the person
complained
against
: Ms. White, Judge
of Supreme Court of Queensland.
When the incident
occurred
: 5th June, 2006.
(I also had previous unpleasant experience with the same
person on 31st October, 2005).
Brief Background of the incident:-
· GoodLuck
Holdings Pty Ltd. was ordered to be liquidated on 31st October, 2005. This
company was the Trustee of GoodLuck Trust which held immovable property worth $
7-8 Mio. in Molendinar area of Gold Coast. The Liquidators appointed by the
Court, obtained orders from the Supreme Court on 13th January, 2006 to appoint
themselves as Receivers of the property of the Trust and to sell and realise
the assets of the Trust. Tenders were closed on 11th May, 2006. As per the
Supreme Court’s order dated 13th January, 2006, the Receivers (Liquidators)
were required to give a notice of 7 days to my wife viz. Mrs.Pooja Dayal
Mansukhani (who was the appointer of GoodLuck Trust) before entering into any
sale contract. The Receivers did not give any notice of 7 days. My wife
Mrs.Pooja Dayal Mansukhani was repeatedly reminding the Receivers that they
should give 7 days” notice to her so that she can take steps to safeguard the
property from sale. However, in violation of the court’s orders, the Receivers
refused to give 7 days’ notice. There was a loan of $0.7 Mio. against the
property from Suncorp Metway Ltd. of which I was the guarantor. On 16th May,
2006 I repaid this loan and entered the position of first mortgagee of
Molendinar property under the right of subrogation. Thereafter I notified the
Receivers that I am objecting to the sale of the property. My daughter Ms.
Deena Dayal Mansukhani had brought a number of buyers for the property for an amount
as high as $ 8 Mio. However, the Receivers discouraged every buyer and did not
accept any such offers. When my daughter wanted one day’s time from the
Receivers so that the prospective buyer for $ 8 Mio. would reach Australia and
negotiate with the Receivers, the Receivers informed in writing that there was
no need for anybody to be present and that they would accept the sale offer on
the basis of written tenders only. The terms of tender were - payment of 10% as
advance and balance 90% to be paid within 30 days. When the Receivers were not
responding to us in any manner, my daughter tendered advance of $ 4,00,000 and
made an offer for $ 4 Mio. She also made alternate offer of 25 years’ lease @ $
2,50,000 per year so that while generating income of$ 6.25 Mio., the property
ownership would still remain intact with the Trust. It is pertinent to note
that there was only one claimant against the Trustee Company (Here again the
claim was against the company and not against the Trust) for a sum of only $ 112,000.
· · On 18th May, 2006, the
Receivers revealed the truth that they had sold the property by private sale.
One M/s. Heday Pty Ltd. had made down payment of only $ 10,000 and made an
offer for only $2.7 Mio. Secondly, as against the period of 30 days, 60 days
time was given to Heday Pty. Ltd. Thus the Receivers had committed a number of
irregularities. There are narrated in the subsequent paragraphs of this
complaint
· · We were surprised about the
manner which the Receivers had sold the property at a throwaway price. It was
necessary for us to stop the sale, hence we had no option but to go before the
Supreme Court. Accordingly, an application was filed on behalf of my daughter
Ms.Deena Dayal Mansukhani. This application was heard by Judge Ms.White on 5th
June, 2006. In this application, we had pointed out the following
irregularities on the part of Receivers.
· · I appeared in person
alongwith my Indian lawyer Mr.Sanjiv G.Puanlekar. All the documents were
submitted before the Supreme Court on affidavit. The application was signed by
me in my capacity as power of attorney holder. I also stated on affidavit that
my daughter Ms.Deena Dayal Mansukhani did not have valid Visa after expiry of
previous 4 Year Visa in February, 2006. I had also submitted the detailed
outline of written submissions pointing out the various grave irregularities
committed by the Receivers.
· · It is pertinent to note that
both the Receivers were partners of a Chartered Accountant Firm viz.
Korda Mentha which was also in the activity of Real Estate Advisory business
and hence the Receivers had personal vested interest in selling the property at
a throwaway price. There was clear fraud committed by the Receivers against the
Mansukhani family. We are Indians and our Visa had expired. In May 2006 One
Year Business Visa was given to me and my Indian Lawyer Mr.Sanjiv G.Punalekar only
for the specific reason of fighting out our legal cases.
·
When Judge Ms.White heard our application on 5th June,
2006, we went to the Court Room with the fond hope that we would get justice.
We did not expect the Receivers to take a cooperative stand. This is because we
had exposed various irregularities on the part of Receivers. We had also made
complaint against the Receivers to Crime & Misconduct Commission and a copy
of our complaint was tendered to the Supreme Court on Affidavit. Thus
documentary proof was available before the Judge Ms.White whereby she fully
knew that the Receivers had engaged the following irregularities.
·
a) They sold our
property at a throwaway price. (i.e. $ 2.7 mio as against an offer of $ 8 Mio)
b) They made private
sale in a secretive and clandestine manner.
c) They increased the
period of payment from 30 days to 60 days.
d) Instead of down
payment of $ 2,70,000, they accepted down payment of a paltry sum of $ 10,000.
e) Suncorp Metway Ltd.
was knowing about the deal on 16th May, 2006, when the deal was signed on 18th
May, 2006. (We had a written confirmation from Suncorp to this effect
which we appended to our affidavit)
·
They turned down the offer of $ 8 Mio. by giving in
writing that nobody’s presence was required for negotiation whereas this
particular sale was private sale through negotiation. Thus a buyer with an
offer of $ 8 Mio. was chased away for undue benefit of another buyer with an
offer of $ 2.7 Mio.
·
My own daughter’s proposal with two options of
outright sale of $ 4 Mio. and alternate offer of lease with assured income of $
6.25 Mio. were rejected. Only after our making such offers the Liquidators/Receivers
told us the truth about the fraudulent sale conducted by them.
·
When hearing commenced on 5th June 2006 before Judge
Ms. White, The Liquidators’ lawyer did not go into the merits of the case. They
objected to my presence into the Court Room. They produced a judgement of the
court whereby appearance of a litigant through non-lawyer was a matter of
discretion of the court. The Judge Ms. White decided to accept the contention
of Solicitors of Liquidators. She made it clear to me that she would not hear
my application. At this stage I pleaded and begged that my daughter did not
have any Visa. If my daughter was given Visa, she would have come. I also
brought to her the notice that if I was not given any audience, I had no difficulty
at all. Least what I expected from her was to read the papers on record and to
take decision on merit. The validity of power of attorney in my favour
was not in dispute. The application was accepted by the Registry. It is
common that legal documents including petitions can be filed on the basis of
power of attorney. If my behaviour or mannerisms were disliked, I would
not have opened my mouth. What I wanted was that the application should
have been decided on merits particularly when such a serious fraud was
committed.
· · The previous judgement/
case-law produced by the Solicitors of the Liquidators was about personal
appearance and personal audience and even in that particular judgement, though
the court disallowed personal audience to third party, the court had in fact
decided the case on the basis of documents on record. However for reasons best
known to Ms. White, she went one step ahead even to throw away the papers that
I had filed.
· · I am holding the transcripts
of the hearing which shows that the Judge Ms. White took a very long time to
read my application. She read every bit of paper and she came to know that it
was a clear case wherein the Receivers who were locals of Australia and who
were white by race were committing heinous crime against the Indian family. She
read the papers completely and then she decided to reject my application on the
grounds raised by the Liquidators.
· · The said Judge Ms. White did
not stop only at taking technical stand but she went ahead to express venom and
vengeance against me personally by adding her personal knowledge into the
issue. Previously, when the company was liquidated on 31st October, 2005, this
very same Judge Ms .White had heard my matter in the court and a winding up
order was passed for a sum of $ 7,000 even though I had personally volunteered
to deposit the amount into the court on the very same day i.e. 31st October,
2005. At that time our company’s bank balance was more than $ 17,000.
Nevertheless at that point of time the Judge Ms. White had rejected my plea to
deposit $17,000.
· · While pronouncing her
judgement on 5th June, 2006, Ms. White imported her personal knowledge and
personal prejudice into her judgement and she made reference to my previous
appearances before her. This clearly showed that she was prejudiced and she had
personal hatred against me.
· · She read the papers and
specifically inquired as to who drafted the same. The Indian lawyer
accompanying me explained that the drafting was done by him. This fact is
recorded in the transcript. Thus Ms. White was aware that the papers were
duly drafted and there was no harm in taking a decision on the basis of
documents. However, when she realized that action would be warranted
against white persons for a crime against an Asian, she decided to take an
extreme stand and hush up the matter.
· · The transcripts of the
hearing held on 5th June, 2006 would not show any particular utterance against
me as a person of Indian race. However, if the transcript is carefully heard,
you will realize that Ms. White took a long time to read my papers and after
reading my papers, she decided to throw her weight behind the Liquidators who
belong to her race. Before that she did inquire about who drafted my
papers. While doing so, she could not control herself and went on
recording some previous personal experiences which was not even on the records
of the court. Thus Ms. White acted with vengeance, prejudice and with a feeling
of racial discrimination.
· · Sir, I am not an educated
person and may be that I have sometimes lacked in my mannerism and my language.
However, this is not the reason to victimize my whole family to sell our
property of $ 8 Mio. for a paltry sum of $ 2.7 Mio. Ms. White clearly acted
with a feeling of racial discrimination against me. In Australia there is a
system of recording the transcripts. Naturally, she had her own limitations in
making racial remarks against me. But what is important is her conduct which
was racial. I am ready to provide you with any data, including a copy of the
transcript, as also a copy of the application, affidavit and written arguments,
alongwith a copy of my complaint to the Crime & Misconduct Commission
against the Receivers.
·
My Indian lawyer Mr. Sanjiv G. Punalekar would also
testify as my witness. He edits a magazine named “Civil Liberties”, which is
registered as a newspaper with the Registrar of Newspapers in India. He
successfully fought various public interest litigations in India. The website
search of www.google.com <http://www.google.com/> with the words “Punalekar” would reveal his Public Interest
Litigations (PIL) in India and his contribution to the Human Rights activities
in India. When I requested the Judge Ms. White to allow him to act as my
Mckanzy friend, she refused. He was a witness to the whole drama and has also
seen the expressions of contempt which she showed towards me while throwing out
the legitimate application filed by me as a power of attorney holder for my
daughter.
· A racial behaviour is not only done by words but also by action and
__expression. Mr. Punalekar is my witness who has seen her contemptuous
expressions and manner in which she ill-treated me. This is also substantiated
by additional import of facts by Ms. White into her judgement. On one hand Ms.
White threw out my application on technical grounds and on the other hand she
went on making personal remarks against me which were irrelevant to the issues
of the case. It is necessary to curb such tendencies.
· Australia is a multi-cultural country and is always fondly pronouncing
its multi-cultural legacy. I request you to initiate action against the Judge
Ms. White for racial behaviour and order enquiry into the whole episode.
· I look forward to you for your quick action. I shall wait for a period
of 15 days till I knock the doors of International forums, including UN bodies.
· Should you require any details from my lawyer Mr. Sanjiv Punalekar, he
is available on e-mail address punalekar@hotmail.com <mailto:punalekar@hotmail.com>

Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,
DAYAL H. MANSUKHANI

Dear Mr Mansukhani
·
I refer to your email received by this Commission on 7
August 2006 in which you raise concerns regarding your daughter's case which
was heard before the Hon Justice Margaret White at the Supreme Court of
Queensland. You claim that Justice White behaved in a racist manner in her
actions and expressions towards you and that this affected her judgement of the
case.
·
I
appreciate the time you have taken to bring this matter to our attention. The Director of Complaint Handling has assessed your correspondence and
has asked me to reply and advise you of the Commission’s jurisdiction.
·
For your information, this Commission is able to
investigate complaints of race discrimination in specific areas of public life,
including employment; education; provision of goods and services; and access to
places and facilities under the Racial Discrimination Act 1975. Please
note that
to make a complaint of race discrimination, it is not enough that a person is
of a particular race and is unhappy with the treatment that they have received
in an area of public life. The person must be able to show that the way they
were treated was less favourable because of their race and provide full
details of the alleged discrimination. I note that you have not provided any
specific details regarding the alleged race discrimination.
·
Also, it is important to note that acts done by
judicial officers and others performing their functions, or functions closely
associated with judicial function, are protected from legal action by “judicial
immunity”. The scope of judicial immunity was considered in Yeldham v Rajski
(1989) 18 NSWLR 48 in which Kirby P stated that judicial immunity
·
“is a hallmark of our legal system… that
at least judges of superior courts, in performance of judicial functions, are
immune from suit in respect of them. Such immunity is grounded in high public
policy, designed to ensure that, in the performance of their judicial
functions, such judges may act fearlessly and without the harassing concern
that they will be made personally liable for the performance of their functions
before another judge at the suit of a person disgruntled by the decision.”
·
I hope that you can appreciate the benefits of this
principle and why judicial officers, and those carrying out their functions,
are protected from legal suit, including claims of alleged discrimination.
·
The issue of whether judicial immunity extends to
protection from claims brought under Commonwealth discrimination laws was
specifically considered by the High Court of Australia in Re East: Ex Parte
Nguyen (1998) 196 CLR 354. It found that there was no intention expressed
in the Racial Discrimination Act 1975 “which suggests that it
was the intention of Parliament to override that immunity”. It would appear
this immunity would apply in your case. To view the decision please go to: http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/cases/cth/HCA/1998/73.html
·
Given the above, the Commission will not be taking any
further action regarding your matter at this time. If you have any questions
please feel free to contact me on 1300 656 419 or via e-mail at complaintsinfo@humanrights.gov.au. If you would like more information about the Commission's role and
functions please visit our website at www.humanrights.gov.au.

· I am in receipt of your
mail. I thank you for guiding me in the matter. The judgement
of High Court quoted by you indeed refers to judicial immunity and about the
intentions of Parliamentarians to keep the judges immune. However, subsequent
to this judgement, there is a change in circumstances. The Parliament of
Queensland passed the Crime & Misconduct Act in the year 2001 and ensured
that the judges too are governed by this Act. Today a common man can
bring the judge within the purview of this Act. Naturally there is
a change in the thinking of Parliament. The analysis that was made by the High
Court does not remain applicable. Therefore, it is necessary for the
Court to apply its mind afresh.
· I also bring to your
attention to the fact that human rights are superior to other rights. When in
respect of other rights (such as those under Crime & Misconduct Act) the
judges are not immune, how the judges can be immune with regard to Human
Rights? This would be particularly strange when Commonwealth of Australia
is a signatory to the International Conventions on Human Rights.
When a judge is subject to liability under local laws how he would be immune
from liability as per International Conventions? I recollect that a
judge in Queensland was sentenced to jail for a criminal act and this created a
news story in the media. How then a judge can be exempted for violation
of human rights? As regards racism of this particular judge, what
is necessary for you is to "hear" the whole transcript and take
evidence. Then only the truth would be revealed.

AFFIDAVIT OF MR. DAYAL H. MANSUKHANI IN SUPPORT OF
HIS PETITIONS , APPLICATIONS AND SUBMISSIONS BEFORE
NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL COURTS & TRIBUNALS
INCLUDING HUMAN RIGHTS’ BODIES ALL OVER WORLD
I, Mr. Dayal H. Mansukhani, Indian adult, residing at Flat
No.19, Malkani Mahal, Self-Help Cooperative Housing Society Ltd., 261, Dr.
Annie Besant Road, Worli, Mumbai – 400 030, India state on oath as under:-
1. I am affirming this affidavit to place on record certain facts
in a nut-shell for the information of various authorities in India as well as
abroad and also the Human Rights bodies all over the world including
organizations functioning under United Nations. This affidavit shall be relied
upon by me as general affidavit not only in various legal proceedings but also
in various representations and petitions that would be filed by me. I am
personally aware of the facts averred herein and I am affirming this affidavit
on the basis of experience actually undergone by me.
2. I am an Indian businessman who was in Dubai for 25 years
with my wife viz. Mrs.Pooja Dayal Mansukhani and three children. All my
children are major now. I was undertaking various businesses in Dubai wherein
my wife was my active associate and partner and she was fully involved in
business activities in Dubai. In 2002 we decided to migrate to Australia and
accordingly obtained Business 457 Multi Visit 4 Year Visa for our family
wherein my wife Mrs.Pooja Dayal Mansukhani was the applicant and rest of the
members of the family were dependants.
3. We went to
Australia with the fond hope that it is a democratic country and we would be in
a position to prosper by making best use of our business talent and our
investible funds. We had ambitious business plans and we shifted our entire
wealth amounting to more than $ 2.5 Mio. to Australia.
4. When we reached Australia, we had a plan of establishing a
Multi Million Kiosk project. We had confidence that by establishing hundreds of
internet kiosks in hotels, motels and shopping complexes, we would be able to
generate income of atleast $ 1 Mio. every year for an initial period of
3-4 years and this income would keep on multiplying in future years. We
also had plan of taking up property development business. Accordingly we
acquired a commercial property on 31st May, 2002 in Molendinar in
Gold Coast in the State of Queensland. The purchase price of the property was $
1.17 Mio. and it had annual rental value of more than $ 0.16 Mio. An Australian
bank viz. Suncorp Metway Ltd. extended finance to the tune of $ 0.90 Mio. which
was repayable in a period of 10 years @ 0.12 Mio. p.a. I say that the decision
to purchase the property at Molendinar reflected business wisdom and acumen of
our family for the sole reason that the bank loan was of a self-liquidating
nature from a part of annual rent whereby the loan would be closed in 10 years
and the property would be fully owned by us with only initial margin provided
by us. We also had plans to take up redevelopment of the property since huge
plot of land was available and tenanted building formed only a part of the
property.
5. I say that there is a nexus in Queensland amongst the
property dealers, solicitors, and judicial officers due to which a foreigner in
Queensland faces a very serious problem as soon as he buys any property. The
population of Queensland is around 12 Mio. and there is a boom in prices of
real estate mainly due to foreign investment. Queensland is a tourist place
visited by millions of foreign tourists. It is also inhabited largely by
students from all over the world including students from India . Due to tourism
and heavy publicity, investors from all over the world are also coming
Australia for investing in Real Estate. When any overseas investor begins his
business enquiries, he receives tall promises and a very optimistic approach
from local real estate agents and solicitors. Such investor gets lot of
encouraging responses by explaining to him lucrative return on investment,
lower bank rate, assured income from tenants, etc. However the investor is not
informed about a number of shortcomings.
6. After I purchased the property and found that the tenants
were misusing the same, I initiated legal proceedings against the tenants.
Unfortunately, the local solicitors who are in the habit of hatching
conspiracies against overseas investors and finally selling off their
properties so as to share their own booty deliberately sabotaged my
litigation. These solicitors also left me in lurch with regard to my
dispute with an Australian landlord in respect of my internet business.
Finally while I went on receiving setbacks in my cases against my own tenants,
my own landlord – even though large surplus amounts paid by me were lying with
him- succeeded in obtaining favourable court orders against me. I was
running an internet café wherein the cost of computers and equipments was more
than $ 3,00,000/- . Due to pressures from the landlord, I decided to
shift to another premises and sold off the internet business for just a sum of
$ 51,111/-. The local solicitors conspired with the buyer and filed
damage suit against my wife’s company and my wife even though both of them were
not involved in the dispute in any manner.
7. I realized that there was a clear conspiracy between the
local solicitors, estate agents, police authorities and the courts of
law. The economy of Queensland is thriving on the income on real estate.
The auction of investors’ properties is a routine feature in the place.
Legal advice and litigation is very costly. Nobody is interested in
giving justice to overseas investor. On the contrary, once the investor
brings in his fund and makes and investment, everyone is interested to get him
declared bankrupt and auction his property. The investment brought in by him
adds to the wealth of Queensland. In the process, there are several
rounds of litigation and several rounds of action. Both real estate
agents and solicitors become richer and richer. They share their gains
with the judges. Naturally, the judges are biased in their favour and
always give adverse judgements against overseas investors. I was victim
of this situation.
8. Even though the dispute was between myself and buyer of
internet business, the District Court of Southport went on issuing orders such
as Mareva order against the property of our family trust (wherein my wife’s
company Good Luck Holdings Pty Ltd was a trustee), ordering costs against all
defendants including the company etc. Finally taking advantage of the
fact that my wife was then out of Australia, a liquidation petition was brought
against her company for a petty sum of $ 7000/- at a time when the balance in
bank accounts of the company was more than $ 17,000/-. When I appeared
before Judge Ms. Margaret White of the Supreme Court of Queensland and
volunteered to make payment of the amount involved in the petition, she simply
rejected my pleas and ordered winding up of the company.
14. While
communicating the decision of the Supreme Court, the Receivers had informed us
that vide letter dated 13th April, 2006 they would be selling the
Molendinar property by tender and the tender would close on 27th
April, 2006. My daughter commenced correspondence with the Receivers and
advised them that our children would like to raise funds and approach the
Supreme Court with an appropriate proposal so that sale of the valuable
property at Molendinar can be avoided. A series of emails were exchanged
between my daughter and the Receivers wherein documentary proof was furnished
to the Receivers about the fact that a balance of more than $ 1.6 Mio. was
lying with Australian Bank viz. Suncorp Metway Ltd. My daughter expressed
willingness that the entire liability of Suncorp Metway Ltd. which was first
mortgagee of the property to the tune of $ 6,83,000 would be closed and the
amount of entire claim of Dr.Thamir Karam (i.e. the buyer of my internet
business who had obtained liquidation orders against my wife’s company) would
be deposited either in the court of with the Receivers. She invited the
attention of the Receivers to the fact that Dr.Thamir Karam was not the
creditor of the Trust. He had obtained a judgement against GoodLuck Holdings
Pty Ltd. and there was no reason to sell the property of GoodLuck Trust unless
judgement related to GoodLuck Trust. Nevertheless, she expressed willingness to
deposit the entire claim of Dr.Thamir Karam so that it can be left to the
Supreme Court to decide whether Dr.Thamir Karam was a creditor of the Trust or
whether he was a creditor only of the company. At this juncture, the Receivers
came forward with a strange condition that for such a proposal, consent of
Dr.Thamir Karam was required to be obtained by my daughter. Dr.Thamir Karam was
never a creditor of the Trust. He had only tried to arm-twist the Mansukhani
family by creating threats for the property at Molendinar. If we had approached
him for his consent, there would not be any chance of his giving consent
without our agreeing to make full payment of his claim. He was an interested
party having a direct clash of interest with the beneficiaries of the Trust. It
was unbecoming on the part of the Receivers in their capacity as Officers of
the court, stipulating such a condition. Even if the Receivers had sold the
property, they would still have to obtain direction from the Supreme Court
whether Dr.Thamir Karam was creditor of the company or creditor of the Trust.
Instead of making them to wait for the sale of the property and seek
clarifications from the Supreme Court, they were making the process easy by
deposing the amount immediately so that the Supreme Court can quickly dispose
off the claim of Dr.Thamir Karam. In any case, Dr.Thamir Karam had to satisfy
the Supreme Court and he was not concerned whether the amount deposited into
the Supreme Court came from out of the sale proceeds of the property or from
deposits made by the beneficiaries of the Trust. However, if his consent was
made a pre-condition, then he would give unnecessary importance and locus
standi whereby he would bring undue pressure on us to settle his illegitimate
claim against the Trust, even though he was not at all creditor of the Trust.
My daughter pointed out this position to the Receivers and made several pleas
that consent of Dr.Thamir Karam should not be made a pre-condition as no
prejudice was caused by the proposal to Dr.Thamir Karam. Even then the
Receivers refused to change their stand and insisted that consent of Dr.Thamir
Karam was compulsory. We intended to deposit full amount in the court so that
the sale of the property could be avoided. We requested Suncorp Metway Ltd. to
act as our Trustee, engage a lawyer for us and deposit the entire amount into
the court so that the sale of the property could be stopped. We also requested
the office of Public Trustee (which is a statutory office in Queensland) to act
as our Trustee. However, both Suncorp Metway Ltd. and the Public Trustee
refused to act as our Trustee. Thereafter we informed the Liquidators
(Receivers) that we shall deposit the entire amount with the Receivers only.
The Receivers again refused and insisted that consent of Dr.Thamir Karam was
necessary. This left us with no option but to directly approach the Supreme
Court. We were completely confused and helpless as to why the Liquidators
were pent upon selling our property. We forwarded our application to the Supreme
Court directly wherein we showed our willingness to deposit the entire amount
mentioned by the Liquidators in their first affidavit and we attached our bank
statement to our application to show that we were really holding balance for
making deposit.
15. On
10th May, 2006, the Supreme Court heard our application. We informed
the court that we were making on the spot payment to the Liquidators/ Receivers
and our request was only to stop the sale. However, the Supreme Court heard
elaborate arguments for nearly half an hour wherein we time and again mentioned
that we were ready to deposit the amount on the spot without any conditions and
our only request was to stop the sale. The court however, rejected our
application at the end on the only ground that the leave was not granted to
Mr.Sanjiv G.Punalekar to appear for Dayal & Sons International Investors
Pty Ltd. and that the court wanted us to engage only an Australian solicitor. I
say that the court first allowed Mr.Sanjiv G.Punalekar to put all his arguments
and when all his arguments were exhausted when the court was convinced that the
sale was illegal and the Receivers had some personal interest in the sale, the
court rejected the application not on merits but on technical grounds that an
Australian solicitor should have represented Dayal & Sons International
Investors Pty Ltd.
16. At
this juncture, Mr.Sanjiv G.Punalekar even volunteered that he will re-submit
the application through an Australian solicitor within a short time and his
only request was to accept the payment on the sport to stop the sale till a
fresh application can be made. Even then the request was rejected. All these
events are duly recorded in the transcripts of hearing held on 10th
May, 2006 before the Supreme Court Judge Mr.Chesterman J. He immediately
engaged an Australian Solicitor and started taking steps to safeguard our
interest to the extent possible. First of all, I repaid the entire debt of
Suncorp Metway Ltd. amounting to $712,000 from out of the funds given by Dayal
& Sons International Investors Pty Ltd. Thereafter, I became the first
mortgagee of GoodLuck Trust by virtue of right of subrogation as guarantor. A
notice was given to the Receivers that as first mortgagee, I was objecting to
the sale. In the meantime, the date for closure of tender was extended by the
Receivers upto 11th May, 2006. Hence the appointer of the Trust viz.
Mrs.Pooja Dayal Mansukhani issued a notice to the Receivers on 15th
May, 2006 reminding the Receivers about their duty to give 7 days’ notice
before entering into any sale contract. Strangely the Receivers responded by
stating that they would not be giving any notice. In the meanwhile, my daughter
had submitted a number of sale offers to the agents of the Receivers, including
an offer as high as $8 Mio. However, in some or the other pretext, the
Receivers chased away these prospective buyers. I am having copies of
correspondences made by these prospective buyers and the manner in which the
Receivers deliberately discouraged these prospective buyers from submitting
their bids. As the Receivers were refusing to divulge any details about the
sale offers received by them and about their intentions of entering into sale
contract, my daughter made an offer to buy the property for $ 4 Mio. and in the
alternative to take the property on 25 years’ lease at lease rent of $ 2,50,000
per year. She in fact forwarded the bank cheque of $ 2,50,000 to the Receivers
in advance alongwith proof of readings of another cheque for $ 1,50,000 thereby
making 10% of total sale offer of $ 4 Mio. Thus the Liquidators were given two
options. Surprisingly, at this juncture, the Liquidators came forward with the
truth that before the period of 7 days could complete, from the date of closure
of tender, they had agreed to sell the property to a company called M/s. Heday
Pty Ltd. for just $ 2.7 Mio. by accepting down payment of only $ 10,000 and
they had also increased the period for payment from 30 days to 60 days. Thus
the Liquidators had sold the property by private sale at a throwaway price
behind our back and without giving 7 days’ notice to us while turning down
better offer for $ 8 Mio.
17. While
discouraging the offer for $ 8 Mio., the Receivers had given in writing that
the prospective buyer need not be present in Australia and acceptance of offers
will only be on the basis of Written offers without any negotiation or
discussion. However, in reality, they held negotiations with M/s.Heday Pty Ltd.
in a clientele manner and sold our property at a throwaway price.
18. The
property was allegedly sold on 18th May, 2006. However, when we
repaid the loan of Suncorp Metway Ltd., Suncorp Metway Ltd. informed us two
days in advance i.e. on 16th May, 2006 itself that the contract for
sale was executed by the Receivers. This was definitely suspicious and fishy.
a) They sold our property at a throwaway price. (i.e. $ 2.7
mio as against an offer of $ 8 Mio)
b) They made private sale in a secretive and clandestine
manner.
c) They increased the period of payment from 30 days to 60
days.
d) Instead of down payment of $ 2,70,000, they accepted down
payment of a paltry sum of $ 10,000.
e) Suncorp Metway Ltd. was knowing about the deal on 16th
May, 2006 , when the deal was signed on 18th May, 2006 . (We
had a written confirmation from Suncorp to this effect which we appended to our
affidavit)
f) They turned down the offer of $ 8 Mio. by giving in writing
that nobody’s presence was required for negotiation whereas this particular
sale was private sale through negotiation. Thus a buyer with an offer of $ 8
Mio. was chased away for undue benefit of another buyer with an offer of $ 2.7
Mio.
g) My own daughter’s proposal with two options of outright
sale of $ 4 Mio. and alternate offer of lease with assured income of $ 6.25
Mio. were rejected. Only after our making such offers the Liquidators/Receivers
told us the truth about the fraudulent sale conducted by them.
i) The
Liquidators’ refusal to give 7 days’ notice in violation of Supreme Court
orders.
ii) The
Liquidators’ action of selling the property even before 7 days were completed
from the date of closure of tender.
iii) Suncorp
Metway Ltd. having knowledge in advance i.e. on 16th May, 2006, when
the contract was entered on 18th May, 2006.
iv) Acceptance
of down payment of only $ 10,000 as against the application to reject the
tender where down payment was less than 10%.
v) Extension
of time period from 30 days to 60 days.
vi) Turning
down better offer of $ 8 Mio.
vii) Turning
down offers of my daughter for 25 years’ lease generating income of $ 6.25 Mio.
per year by keeping the property ownership intact with the Trust.
viii) Declining
my daughter’s proposal for $ 4 Mio. when down payment of $ 4,00,000 was already
made.
Today I have been denied justice. However, I am not
going to keep silent. I shall knock the doors of the Human Rights Bodies
all over the world and shall seek justice. I am in the process of making a
documentary film on my plight. I am also arranging to put up a website
depicting this grave injustice. When Idi Amin of Uganda did similar things to
investors from Europe, he was declared to be a violator of human rights.
The question that I would raise would be –“ Is this logic applicable only to
Uganda or would it apply to Australia as well?” I shall keep on raising
this issue till I get justice.

Name of the person
complained against
: Ms. White, Judge
of Supreme Court of Queensland.
When the incident
occurred
: 5th June, 2006.
(I also had previous unpleasant experience with the same
person on 31st October, 2005).
Brief Background of the incident:-
· GoodLuck
Holdings Pty Ltd. was ordered to be liquidated on 31st October, 2005. This
company was the Trustee of GoodLuck Trust which held immovable property worth $
7-8 Mio. in Molendinar area of Gold Coast. The Liquidators appointed by the
Court, obtained orders from the Supreme Court on 13th January, 2006 to appoint
themselves as Receivers of the property of the Trust and to sell and realise
the assets of the Trust. Tenders were closed on 11th May, 2006. As per the
Supreme Court’s order dated 13th January, 2006, the Receivers (Liquidators)
were required to give a notice of 7 days to my wife viz. Mrs.Pooja Dayal
Mansukhani (who was the appointer of GoodLuck Trust) before entering into any
sale contract. The Receivers did not give any notice of 7 days. My wife
Mrs.Pooja Dayal Mansukhani was repeatedly reminding the Receivers that they
should give 7 days” notice to her so that she can take steps to safeguard the
property from sale. However, in violation of the court’s orders, the Receivers
refused to give 7 days’ notice. There was a loan of $0.7 Mio. against the
property from Suncorp Metway Ltd. of which I was the guarantor. On 16th May,
2006 I repaid this loan and entered the position of first mortgagee of
Molendinar property under the right of subrogation. Thereafter I notified the
Receivers that I am objecting to the sale of the property. My daughter Ms.
Deena Dayal Mansukhani had brought a number of buyers for the property for an
amount as high as $ 8 Mio. However, the Receivers discouraged every buyer and
did not accept any such offers. When my daughter wanted one day’s time from the
Receivers so that the prospective buyer for $ 8 Mio. would reach Australia and
negotiate with the Receivers, the Receivers informed in writing that there was
no need for anybody to be present and that they would accept the sale offer on
the basis of written tenders only. The terms of tender were - payment of 10% as
advance and balance 90% to be paid within 30 days. When the Receivers were not
responding to us in any manner, my daughter tendered advance of $ 4,00,000 and
made an offer for $ 4 Mio. She also made alternate offer of 25 years’ lease @ $
2,50,000 per year so that while generating income of$ 6.25 Mio., the property
ownership would still remain intact with the Trust. It is pertinent to note
that there was only one claimant against the Trustee Company (Here again the
claim was against the company and not against the Trust) for a sum of only $
112,000.
· On 18th May, 2006, the
Receivers revealed the truth that they had sold the property by private sale.
One M/s. Heday Pty Ltd. had made down payment of only $ 10,000 and made an
offer for only $2.7 Mio. Secondly, as against the period of 30 days, 60 days
time was given to Heday Pty. Ltd. Thus the Receivers had committed a number of
irregularities. There are narrated in the subsequent paragraphs of this
complaint
· We were surprised about the
manner which the Receivers had sold the property at a throwaway price. It was
necessary for us to stop the sale, hence we had no option but to go before the
Supreme Court. Accordingly, an application was filed on behalf of my daughter
Ms.Deena Dayal Mansukhani. This application was heard by Judge Ms.White on 5th
June, 2006. In this application, we had pointed out the following
irregularities on the part of Receivers.
· I appeared in person
alongwith my Indian lawyer Mr.Sanjiv G.Puanlekar. All the documents were
submitted before the Supreme Court on affidavit. The application was signed by
me in my capacity as power of attorney holder. I also stated on affidavit that
my daughter Ms.Deena Dayal Mansukhani did not have valid Visa after expiry of
previous 4 Year Visa in February, 2006. I had also submitted the detailed
outline of written submissions pointing out the various grave irregularities
committed by the Receivers.
· It is pertinent to note that
both the Receivers were partners of a Chartered Accountant Firm viz.
Korda Mentha which was also in the activity of Real Estate Advisory business
and hence the Receivers had personal vested interest in selling the property at
a throwaway price. There was clear fraud committed by the Receivers against the
Mansukhani family. We are Indians and our Visa had expired. In May 2006 One
Year Business Visa was given to me and my Indian Lawyer Mr.Sanjiv G.Punalekar
only for the specific reason of fighting out our legal cases.
When Judge Ms.White heard our application on 5th June,
2006, we went to the Court Room with the fond hope that we would get justice.
We did not expect the Receivers to take a cooperative stand. This is because we
had exposed various irregularities on the part of Receivers. We had also made
complaint against the Receivers to Crime & Misconduct Commission and a copy
of our complaint was tendered to the Supreme Court on Affidavit. Thus
documentary proof was available before the Judge Ms.White whereby she fully
knew that the Receivers had engaged the following irregularities.
a) They sold our
property at a throwaway price. (i.e. $ 2.7 mio as against an offer of $ 8 Mio)
b) They made private
sale in a secretive and clandestine manner.
c) They increased the
period of payment from 30 days to 60 days.
d) Instead of down
payment of $ 2,70,000, they accepted down payment of a paltry sum of $ 10,000.
e) Suncorp Metway Ltd.
was knowing about the deal on 16th May, 2006, when the deal was signed on 18th
May, 2006. (We had a written confirmation from Suncorp to this effect
which we appended to our affidavit)
f)
They turned down the offer of $ 8 Mio. by giving in writing that nobody’s
presence was required for negotiation whereas this particular sale was private
sale through negotiation. Thus a buyer with an offer of $ 8 Mio. was chased
away for undue benefit of another buyer with an offer of $ 2.7 Mio.
g)
My own daughter’s proposal with two options of outright sale of $ 4 Mio. and
alternate offer of lease with assured income of $ 6.25 Mio. were rejected. Only
after our making such offers the Liquidators/Receivers told us the truth about
the fraudulent sale conducted by them.
When hearing commenced on 5th June 2006 before Judge
Ms. White, The Liquidators’ lawyer did not go into the merits of the case. They
objected to my presence into the Court Room. They produced a judgement of the
court whereby appearance of a litigant through non-lawyer was a matter of
discretion of the court. The Judge Ms. White decided to accept the contention
of Solicitors of Liquidators. She made it clear to me that she would not hear
my application. At this stage I pleaded and begged that my daughter did not
have any Visa. If my daughter was given Visa, she would have come. I also
brought to her the notice that if I was not given any audience, I had no
difficulty at all. Least what I expected from her was to read the papers on
record and to take decision on merit. The validity of power of attorney
in my favour was not in dispute. The application was accepted by the
Registry. It is common that legal documents including petitions can be filed on
the basis of power of attorney. If my behaviour or mannerisms were
disliked, I would not have opened my mouth. What I wanted was that the
application should have been decided on merits particularly when such a serious
fraud was committed.
· The previous judgement/
case-law produced by the Solicitors of the Liquidators was about personal
appearance and personal audience and even in that particular judgement, though
the court disallowed personal audience to third party, the court had in fact
decided the case on the basis of documents on record. However for reasons best
known to Ms. White, she went one step ahead even to throw away the papers that
I had filed.
· I am holding the transcripts
of the hearing which shows that the Judge Ms. White took a very long time to
read my application. She read every bit of paper and she came to know that it
was a clear case wherein the Receivers who were locals of Australia and who
were white by race were committing heinous crime against the Indian family. She
read the papers completely and then she decided to reject my application on the
grounds raised by the Liquidators.
· The said Judge Ms. White did
not stop only at taking technical stand but she went ahead to express venom and
vengeance against me personally by adding her personal knowledge into the
issue. Previously, when the company was liquidated on 31st October, 2005, this
very same Judge Ms .White had heard my matter in the court and a winding up
order was passed for a sum of $ 7,000 even though I had personally volunteered
to deposit the amount into the court on the very same day i.e. 31st October,
2005. At that time our company’s bank balance was more than $ 17,000.
Nevertheless at that point of time the Judge Ms. White had rejected my plea to
deposit $17,000.
· While pronouncing her
judgement on 5th June, 2006, Ms. White imported her personal knowledge and
personal prejudice into her judgement and she made reference to my previous
appearances before her. This clearly showed that she was prejudiced and she had
personal hatred against me.
· She read the papers and
specifically inquired as to who drafted the same. The Indian lawyer
accompanying me explained that the drafting was done by him. This fact is
recorded in the transcript. Thus Ms. White was aware that the papers were
duly drafted and there was no harm in taking a decision on the basis of
documents. However, when she realized that action would be warranted
against white persons for a crime against an Asian, she decided to take an
extreme stand and hush up the matter.
· The transcripts of the
hearing held on 5th June, 2006 would not show any particular utterance against
me as a person of Indian race. However, if the transcript is carefully heard,
you will realize that Ms. White took a long time to read my papers and after
reading my papers, she decided to throw her weight behind the Liquidators who belong
to her race. Before that she did inquire about who drafted my papers.
While doing so, she could not control herself and went on recording some
previous personal experiences which was not even on the records of the court.
Thus Ms. White acted with vengeance, prejudice and with a feeling of racial
discrimination.
· Sir, I am not an educated
person and may be that I have sometimes lacked in my mannerism and my language.
However, this is not the reason to victimize my whole family to sell our property
of $ 8 Mio. for a paltry sum of $ 2.7 Mio. Ms. White clearly acted with a
feeling of racial discrimination against me. In Australia there is a system of
recording the transcripts. Naturally, she had her own limitations in making
racial remarks against me. But what is important is her conduct which was
racial. I am ready to provide you with any data, including a copy of the
transcript, as also a copy of the application, affidavit and written arguments,
alongwith a copy of my complaint to the Crime & Misconduct Commission
against the Receivers.
My Indian lawyer Mr. Sanjiv G. Punalekar would also
testify as my witness. He edits a magazine named “Civil Liberties”, which is
registered as a newspaper with the Registrar of Newspapers in India. He
successfully fought various public interest litigations in India. The website
search of www.google.com <http://www.google.com/> with the words “Punalekar” would reveal his Public Interest
Litigations (PIL) in India and his contribution to the Human Rights activities
in India. When I requested the Judge Ms. White to allow him to act as my
Mckanzy friend, she refused. He was a witness to the whole drama and has also
seen the expressions of contempt which she showed towards me while throwing out
the legitimate application filed by me as a power of attorney holder for my
daughter.
A racial behaviour is not only done by words but also by action and
__expression. Mr. Punalekar is my witness who has seen her contemptuous expressions
and manner in which she ill-treated me. This is also substantiated by
additional import of facts by Ms. White into her judgement. On one hand Ms.
White threw out my application on technical grounds and on the other hand she
went on making personal remarks against me which were irrelevant to the issues
of the case. It is necessary to curb such tendencies.
Australia is a multi-cultural country and is always fondly pronouncing
its multi-cultural legacy. I request you to initiate action against the Judge
Ms. White for racial behaviour and order enquiry into the whole episode.
I look forward to you for your quick action. I shall wait for a period
of 15 days till I knock the doors of International forums, including UN bodies.
Should you require any details from my lawyer Mr. Sanjiv Punalekar, he
is available on e-mail address punalekar@hotmail.com <mailto:punalekar@hotmail.com>
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,
DAYAL H. MANSUKHANI
Dear
Mr Mansukhani
I
refer to your email received by this Commission on 7 August 2006 in which you
raise concerns regarding your daughter's case which was heard before the Hon
Justice Margaret White at the Supreme Court of Queensland. You claim that
Justice White behaved in a racist manner in her actions and expressions towards
you and that this affected her judgement of the case.
I appreciate the time you have taken to bring
this matter to our attention. The Director of
Complaint Handling has assessed your correspondence and has asked me to reply
and advise you of the Commission’s jurisdiction.
For
your information, this Commission is able to investigate complaints of race
discrimination in specific areas of public life, including employment;
education; provision of goods and services; and access to places and facilities
under the Racial Discrimination Act 1975. Please note that to make a complaint of
race discrimination, it is not enough that a person is of a particular race and
is unhappy with the treatment that they have received in an area of public
life. The person must be able to show that the way they were treated was less
favourable because of their race and provide full details of the alleged
discrimination. I note that you have not provided any specific details
regarding the alleged race discrimination.
Also,
it is important to note that acts done by judicial officers and others
performing their functions, or functions closely associated with judicial
function, are protected from legal action by “judicial immunity”. The scope of
judicial immunity was considered in Yeldham v Rajski (1989) 18 NSWLR 48
in which Kirby P stated that judicial immunity
“is
a hallmark of our legal system… that at least judges of superior courts, in
performance of judicial functions, are immune from suit in respect of them.
Such immunity is grounded in high public policy, designed to ensure that, in
the performance of their judicial functions, such judges may act fearlessly and
without the harassing concern that they will be made personally liable for the
performance of their functions before another judge at the suit of a person
disgruntled by the decision.”
I
hope that you can appreciate the benefits of this principle and why judicial
officers, and those carrying out their functions, are protected from legal
suit, including claims of alleged discrimination.
The
issue of whether judicial immunity extends to protection from claims brought
under Commonwealth discrimination laws was specifically considered by the High
Court of Australia in Re East: Ex Parte Nguyen (1998) 196 CLR 354. It
found that there was no intention expressed in the Racial Discrimination Act
1975 “which suggests that it was the intention of Parliament to
override that immunity”. It would appear this immunity would apply in your
case. To view the decision please go to: http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/cases/cth/HCA/1998/73.html
Given
the above, the Commission will not be taking any further action regarding your
matter at this time. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me
on 1300 656 419 or via e-mail at complaintsinfo@humanrights.gov.au. If you would like more information about the Commission's role and
functions please visit our website at www.humanrights.gov.au.

I am in receipt of your
mail. I thank you for guiding me in the matter. The judgement
of High Court quoted by you indeed refers to judicial immunity and about the
intentions of Parliamentarians to keep the judges immune. However, subsequent
to this judgement, there is a change in circumstances. The Parliament of
Queensland passed the Crime & Misconduct Act in the year 2001 and ensured
that the judges too are governed by this Act. Today a common man can
bring the judge within the purview of this Act. Naturally there is
a change in the thinking of Parliament. The analysis that was made by the High
Court does not remain applicable. Therefore, it is necessary for the
Court to apply its mind afresh.
I also bring to your
attention to the fact that human rights are superior to other rights. When in
respect of other rights (such as those under Crime & Misconduct Act) the
judges are not immune, how the judges can be immune with regard to Human
Rights? This would be particularly strange when Commonwealth of Australia
is a signatory to the International Conventions on Human Rights.
When a judge is subject to liability under local laws how he would be immune
from liability as per International Conventions? I recollect that a
judge in Queensland was sentenced to jail for a criminal act and this created a
news story in the media. How then a judge can be exempted for violation
of human rights? As regards racism of this particular judge, what
is necessary for you is to "hear" the whole transcript and take
evidence. Then only the truth would be revealed.

Yours truly

NOTICE TO MY
ADVOCATE---
To,
MR.
K.K.SARADCHANDRA BOSE
Under the instructions and on behalf of our clients Mr.
Dayal Mansukhani, of Mumbai we have to address you as under:-
1
That this Notice is been issued to
you and your law firm in Dubai for initiating civil and
criminal proceedings against you for deliberately spoiling the carrier of our
client. And committing the following torts, wrong, offence, breach of trust,
misdemeanors.
2
That when our client was in Australia ,
you deliberately spoilt his legal cases. In the case between our clients and
Mr. Raj Bernard, as when the Court had appointed Accountant to go through the
accounts and give a report to the Court so that the Court would come to know
about who owes how much amount to the other party. At that point of time our
client had a decree against opposite party Mr.Raj Bernard. However due to the
erroneous records given by you to the Court appointed Accountant, not only his
decree was reversed but a decree was slapped on him. I went on asking
particulars from Mr.Bose to know as to what records he had given to the Court
appointed Accountant. However, he did not respond. This is because he probably
knew that once he provides me all the papers, I would surely know that because
of his concealment of documents from the Court I lost the case. Hence he has
deliberately not responded to me.
The misconduct of Mr.Bose does not stop merely at spoiling
my legal cases but he also discouraged me deliberately from entering into Dubai
. He sent me a message falsely claiming that a warrant has been issued against
me in Dubai . This message was sent to create a fear in my mind that I will be
arrested if I came over to Dubai . However in reality, he was trying to keep me
away so that he could spoil my legal cases without giving opportunity to me to
protect my interest. A copy of the message sent by him to me is attached
herewith.
OFFENCES / CRIME OF MR.BOSE
He sent me false message to create fear that I will be
arrested. His intention was that I would not come to Dubai and I
would not know about his conspiracy.
Mr. Bose deliberately misled the Court appointed Accountant
and he did not properly submit the documents to him thereby resulting in
adverse report by the Accountant to the Court.
MY PROPOSED ACTION
Once I establish the above two propositions, I will be in a
position to obtain orders from Criminal Court in Mumbai to register criminal
complaint against Mr.Bose and to seek personal attendance of Mr.Bose before the
Court. However by filing this complaint I need the following documents:-
i)
Documentary proof that no warrant was issued
against me.
ii)
Documentary proof that Mr.Bose indeed did not
submit the required documents to the Court appointed Accountant in Dubai .
iii)
As regards (i) above, it may be noted that
Dubai Police have their own website on which names of persons against whom
warrants are pending are displayed. Therefore it is necessary for me to first
obtain certificate from Dubai Police which shows that during the relevant
period when I received email from Mr.Bose, my name was not appearing on their
website and that the communication from Mr.Bose was a false communication.
iv)
Secondly, I need the letters addressed by
Mr.Bose to the Accountant enclosing various documents in support of my case.
These communications may be either in the form of applications/ affidavits or
in the form of even forwarding letters. This can be obtained by conducting a
search of the Court records and by taking certified copies. I enclose herewith
the soft copies of communications sent by me to Mr.Bose as well as the law
firm. From the same, nature of papers that I have handed over to Mr.Bose will
be clear. I am also enclosing soft copy of email sent by me to Standard
Chartered Bank (SCB) which will reveal that the deal between me and Mr.Raj
Bernard extended to the transactions that took place with SCB. If papers
submitted by Mr.Bose to the Court -appointed Accountant did not cover these
transactions, then I would be in a position to show to the Criminal Court in
India that Mr.Bose deliberately suppressed vital data from the Court appointed
Accountant. It may be observed from the notice sent by me that Mr.Bose was also
appearing for me in various criminal cases filed against Mr.Raj Bernard and in
these criminal cases, Mr.Raj Bernard had clearly admitted his liability and had
sought for only more time and also pleaded that these cases should be tried in
a civil court. Mr.Raj Bernard never disputed his liability and infact admitted
his liability. This is a matter of record before those respective courts. It is
necessary to inspect the Court records to see whether Mr.Bose submitted the
papers and proceedings of those Courts to the Court appointed Accountant. In
other words, Mr.Bose was required to give entire picture to the Accountant
appointed by the Court in Dubai covering dealings with SCB, papers and
proceedings before the criminal court, statement of account sent by me to
Mr.Bose wherein the transactions with Mr.Raj Bernard were reflected, etc.
Therefore someone should conduct proper search of the records of Dubai Court to
make an assessment as to what exactly Mr.Bose submitted to the Court appointed
Accountant. Thereafter certified copies of the relevant application/ forwarding
letters should be obtained.
Certified copies of the above documents showing that
Mr.Bose actually submitted inadequate date to the Accountant appointed by the
Court, coupled with documentary proof from Dubai police that there was no
warrant against me when Mr.Bose threatened me about the warrant would be a
sufficient evidence for me to apply to the Criminal Court in India and obtain
orders against Mr.Bose. I need some competent person who will first obtain a
certificate from Dubai Police at a reasonable cost. After reading this
communication let such person give me a very reasonable estimate of his cost
for obtaining certificate from Dubai Police. I am ready to pay 25% to 50% of
the amount as advance. Once he gets certificate from Dubai Police, both of us
will have mutual confidence. Thereafter I may ask for estimate of cost for
obtaining certified copy of the forwarding letters/ applications with regard to
the papers that were produced by Mr.Bose to the Accountant. Here again I am
ready to pay 25% to 50% of the amount of quotation as advance. Incase any
forwarding letter is not available in the court, then I should be advised about
alternate course. For example, if the Accountant’s report lists out the
particulars given to him by Mr.Bose, then the report itself will be a prima
facie evidence about what documents Mr.Bose handed over to the Accountant. In
that case, I may be forwarded a copy of the Accountant’s report so that the
same can be relied upon before the Indian Court .
Last but not the least, as I will be submitting the
documents before the Indian Court , I will be required to submit English
translation from the original Arabic version. Therefore apart from giving me
fee quote for about two jobs, I should also be given a reasonable estimate of
per page translation cost. Needless to mention that the translation should be
proper and authentic since the Indian Court will be heavily depending on the
same. Please forward me the estimate for the above alongwith the time frame
within which the work can be done. Please note that time is the essence of the
matter. I need certificate from Dubai Police atleast within next 2-3 days.
Thereafter atleast within 3-4 days I should get the remaining requirements
establishing what documents Mr.Bose produced before the Court appointed
Accountant.
In addition, one important aspect on which I would be
implicating Mr.Bose is the delay factor. It is my action against him that
he deliberately kept me in dark. I suspect that even when he was aware of
adverse report from the Accountant, he deliberately did not inform me in time.
Therefore while conducting the above search, the following should also be
verified:-
1) On which date the Accountant submitted the report to the
Court ?
2) On which date Mr.Bose became aware of the report ? (For
example in the hearing held immediately after submission of the report). There
may be mention about the report and in such hearing that Mr.Bose or his
associate lawyer may be present.
3) Alternatively, acknowledgement of law firm of Mr.Bose may
be available in the court records. I also need investigation into this aspect
alongwith documentary proof so that I can confidently go before the Criminal
Court in India with an allegation that time gap between submission of report to
the Dubai Court and reporting of factual finding of the Auditor to me was so
much long that it completely damaged my remedy.

Copy of communication sent by me to Dubai Police today is
appended herebelow:
To,
THE
POLICE HEADQUARTERS
DUBAI
POLICE
U.A.E.
mail@dubaipolice.gov.ae

Sub.:
Request for assistance in providing information about warrant issued by Dubai
Police.
Dear
Sirs,
I am an Indian citizen who was in Dubai for more than 25
years. I left for Australia in the year 2002 and after staying for four years
in Australia I have now come to India .
When I left Dubai there was absolutely no warrant or
decree/ judgement against me. I had certain civil and criminal proceedings
against one Mr.Raj Bernard who was previously having business transactions with
me. After I left Dubai , I was monitoring my legal cases through Mr.K.K.Saradchandra
Bose (An Indian Lawyer in Dubai ). However later I discovered that Mr.Bose did
not handle my cases properly and infact misled me by sending me wrong
information from April, 2003 onwards while at the same time spoiling all my
legal cases in Dubai . In April, 2003, Mr. Bose sent me a message that there
was an arrest warrant against me. He thus discouraged me to come over to Dubai
. This created difficulties for me in coming over to Dubai and assisting in my
legal cases.
Today I have discovered that in my absence, Mr.Bose spoilt
my legal cases and in fact he did not submit various documents and records
which were required to be submitted to the Court appointed Accountant and as a
result, in place of decree/ judgement earlier obtained by me, an adverse decree
and judgement has been obtained by Mr.Raj Bernard against me. I now propose to
return to Dubai . I have highest regard and respect for UAE in general and
Dubai in particular.
Any person who is absconding would generally not stake his
life and money when he learns about pending warrant. However, I have made up my
mind that in respect of court disputes, I shall offer to the court full amount
of dispute claim by obtaining finance from my friends, well wishers and
relatives. Thus I am risking my person as well as my funds that I would be
depositing. I believe in the legal system of UAE and I am confident that I will
get justice. However, I need your assistance to get the correct information. I
enclose herewith a copy of the email received by me from Mr. Bose wherein
he clearly mentions that there is an arrest warrant against me and my name
appears on the website of Dubai Police.
I need the following information from you:-
1) Whether any warrant was issued against me ? If so, when was
the same issued ?
2) Whether any warrant is pending against me as on date ? If
so, please give details of the Court cases.
3) Whether any warrant was really issued against me in the
period between April, 2003 to December, 2003 ? If so, the details of such
warrant.
4) If the answer to Question No.4 above is in affirmative,
then whether my name appeared on the website of Dubai Police and if so, the
details of entries on the website. (I do not find my name on the website as on
date. Hence this question.)
If there are any prescribed fees for the above enquiries,
please let me know.
I rest assure that I shall forthwith make payment through
internet by using my master card. If you require payment either in cash or by
cheque, I will instruct one of the persons in Dubai (who are close to me) to
personally come to your office and deliver cash or cheque.
However, please treat this matter as urgent and reply me by
return email.
Sir, I would like you to appreciate that I am fighting only
for justice. It is necessary for me to wash off the stigma on my character and
I need your assistance for this noble cause. It is necessary for me to reopen
the case as early as possible by proving my bonafide to the Court. For this
purpose I am seeking this lawful assistance from you with all sincerity.
Apart from replying to the above queries, if you could
issue me a certificate that during the period from April, 2003 to December,
2003 my name did not appear on the website of Dubai Police and no warrant was
pending or issued against me, it will be of great help to me in filing truthful
and correct affidavit before the Court of Law to explore the conspiracy against
me by my opponent alongwith my lawyer.
Thanking you,
Yours truly,
DAYAL H.MANSUKHANI
