    "content": "After the agreement, a down payment of 10 per cent was paid, which was totalling to about Kshs3 million. There was a balance of Kshs27 million. What happened is that Terapla which was supposed to buy that particular land formed another company in the name of Chania River Bank Estate. So, Chania River Bank convinced the Chairman of Swani Coffee Estate to allow him to use the title deed to get some money from the bank based on the memorandum of understanding. Later, the same Terapla went ahead and formed another company in the name of Chania River Bank which now purported to have bought the land using the same title deed. In other words, Swani Coffee Estate lost the title deed because he never got the money and the title deed went to somebody else. These are some of the things we are talking about. Another one is Synergy Industrial Credit versus Cape Holdings Limited. I mentioned on Thursday 8th December, 2011 that the matter regarding the investigation of Synergy Industrial Credit is between Synergy Industrial Credit and Cape Holdings. It is a civil matter which is also in arbitration. It has nothing to do with fraud. We said that investigations on the directors of Synergy Industrial Credit for money laundering are independent. We shall give the report later because we want to know whether it is, indeed, true that Synergy Industrial Credit is involved in money laundering. So, the issue of somebody coming up and saying that it is Cape Holdings who are involved in fraud and so on, is unfair. It is not that way. The fact of the matter is that there is an arbitration which is going on. It is a civil matter and has nothing to do with criminal matters."
