Two BlackShield customers arrested over ‘unlawful gathering’ at Registrar General’s office
Sep 24, 2020
Two members of the Coalition of Aggrieved Fund Management Customers have been arrested for picketing at the Registrar General’s office.
This comes barely a day after the aggrieved customers held a press conference to drum home their concerns to the government about the non-payment of their locked-up funds.
The group made up of over 150 people, who are customers of Blackshield Capital Limited, formerly Gold Coast Fund Management, thronged the premises of the Registrar General’s office, on Wednesday, September 23, to present a petition to express disquiet over their exclusion from the bailout packages.
Amidst loud chanting and singing, the angry customers demanded some assurances from the Registrar General, who is also the official liquidator for the defunct fund management companies.
According to the customers, the Registrar General failed to include them in the list of customers to be paid their locked-up funds.
The Secretary for the Coalition, Joseph Aryeetey, said they were even ready to sleep at the premises of the Registrar General to demand their inclusion in the bailout package.
“Although the Unicredit company was in court, they still went ahead and paid the customers. All that we are telling Jemima Oware [Registrar General] and Nana Akufo-Addo is that, irrespective of Blackshield being in court, they should pay us. That’s all,” he said.
