Dr. Rajan Mahtani has once again been dragged into the headlines and this time it has been with respect to Zambezi Portland Cement. After claiming that the factory has been awarded for being the best employer in Ndola, the infamous news portal was quick to defame Dr. Rajan Mahtani by stating that the factory was in a miserable condition when Ital Terrazzo Limited had taken over the management’s position.
After having a pause in the defamation campaign, Zambia Reports came up with this article. Unlike its earlier articles, this time the approach was different. It had strategically used the name of Zambezi Portland Cement and then tried to divert the attention towards Dr. Rajan Mahtani. A reader would generally feel that the news was directed towards an achievement made by the Zambezi Portland Cement, but the person goes on to read the complete article, he will find that it is more about defaming Dr. Rajan Mahtani and Finsbury Investments.
When it comes to focusing on the reality, it has been seen that Mr, Ventriglia has been intentionally skipping Court sessions and has been trying to avoid the battle for ownership in the Court. In the past three occasions he has made himself absent and presented a certificate of poor health in his defence. Earlier it was the Ventriglia family who had claimed that Dr. Rajan Mahtani had unlawfully obtained 58% shares of the Zambezi Portland Cement and now when the Court wants to hear from the Ventriglias, they are running away from the scenario.
Zambia Reports is nothing, but a channel that accepts payment to defame people and praise the payers. The Ventriglia family has used this loophole to defame one of the most respected businessman in Zambia. On the other hand, the Government of Zambia has been silently observing this massacre.
