This July 08 will now be a black date for Professor Tryphon Kinkiey Mulumba. For good reason, he will remember the auction, not by his will but by that of justice, his “White House” or his “villa perched on the heights of Binza” to regularize the debt he owes since 2009 at the Industry Promotion Fund (FPI).
This sale decided by the Kinshasa-Gombe Tribunal de grande instance and confirmed by the Kinshasa-Gombe Court of Appeal will take place at the TGI Gombe from 9 a.m. As often happens in such an operation, it is to the highest bidder who will sell this mortgaged house. And the REIT will only take its nearly 670 thousand USD, of which, in principle, the three-year payment deadline expired in 2012.
It should be remembered that, denying the loan contracted on the pretext that the money had never landed in his account, it was Tryphon Kinkiey Mulumba who took the FPI and the Trust Merchant Bank (TMB) to court, thinking they had won the case. as plaintiff (read the articles of scooprdc.net: The REIT’s claim denied by Kin-Kiey Mulumba: When TMB provides evidence of transfers in his account and Claim denied: Again irrefutable evidence that pushes Kin-Kiey Mulumba, summoned to pay over half a million USD from the REIT!). But after a bitter legal battle, unfortunately to his disadvantage in different jurisdictions, it was finally decided to sell the mortgaged property: his residence. It is the operation which is done today except miraculous change of last minute. Which is not obvious!
