Bank of Uganda lawyers, AF Mpanga and MMAKS Advocates have leaked a confidential list of top depositors of former Crane Bank.
The list was recently submitted to the Commercial Court as evidence in the Crane bank saga where city businessman and former owner of the bank Sudhir Ruparelia is accused by the Central Bank of siphoning over shs400 billion from the defunct banking institution.
The lawyers filed a list as part of evidence against Sudhir and others vide civil suit No: 493 of 2017.
However, some clients on the list are not taking ‘breach’ lightly and are threatening to sue BoU and its lawyers for this anomaly.
Last year, Crane Bank was put under receivership by the Central bank claiming that it had become insolvent and didn’t have enough capital investment to continue conducting business. Later, it was sold to DFCU Bank.
