Buganda Road Chief Magistrate’s Court has heard that the police file for fraud case of the city tycoon, Shukla Babubhai Mukesh, 56, is missing.

Babubhai, the executive director of Shumuk Aluminium Industries Limited is charged with 13 counts of forgery, uttering false documents and conspiracy to commit a felony.

State prosecutor Miriam Njuki told court that the police file was not there and she did not know how far police had reached with its findings and therefore asked the court to adjourn the case.

The trial magistrate Stella Amabilisi deferred the matter to December 14^th, while saying that the file should be brought to court on the same day.

It is alleged that Babubhai and others around April 17, 2015 in Kampala district, with intent to deceive, forged a letter for official hand over of Hotel Diplomate in Muyenga, a Kampala suburb.

The letter is claimed to have been signed by the deceased Consular of Pakistan Islamic Republic in Uganda, Bonny Katatumba.

It is alleged the accused forged signatures of Anne Grace Katatumba, Angella Katatumba, Rugirwa Katatumba, Ian Katatumba and ASP George William Karyegira.

Prosecution continues to state that Babubhai and others still at large in November 6, 2017, in Makindye Chief Magistrate’s Court in Kampala, uttered six false documents as claimed official handover letters of Hotel Diplomate.
