RE: UNABATED CRIMES AT BARCLAYS KENYA
I refer to my letters below of 14th February 2006, 13th February 2006, 26th January 2006, 5th January 2006 and 28th December 2005, and regret that I have not as yet received responses.
This horrendous, shameful and monumental scandal has already caused me more than enough grief, anguish, anxiety, torment, agony and inconvenience, and would wish to be given the final decision.
My illegal extended 60 day suspension on half pay, is due to expire on Saturday, 25th February 2006, and will therefore assume that I will get a response on Monday, 27th February 2006 at 8.05 a.m., because no
one whosoever is bothering to communicate with me. I further add that I do not wish to be unnecessarily kept waiting for one hour and 48 minutes, as was the case on 26th January 2006, and would therefore wish to be directed on where to go on Monday, 27th February 2006, and at what time.
The cowardice and incompetence of the entire management of Barclays Bank of Kenya Limited and Barclays Advisory and Registrar Services Limited,
deeply amazes me.
Yours faithfully

RE: CORPORATE FRAUD COVER UP AT BARCLAYS KENYA
Further to your frantic, desperate and rude phone call to me on my cell phone on Monday, 13th February 2006 at 09:25 Hrs. GMT, I respond as follows:
I submitted corrections of minutes of Disciplinary Hearing of 3rd February 2006, at your Barclays Plaza, Mezzanine 6 Office at 04:49 Hrs. GMT on Monday morning, 13th February 2006. There was no response whatsoever from you between 04:49 Hrs. GMT and 08.11 Hrs. GMT, a period of 3 hours and 22 minutes. At the said 08.11 Hrs. GMT, I sent you my e-mail below of
Monday, 13th February 2006. No sooner had I sent you and others my said e-mail below of 13th February 2006, you as mentioned above, made a frantic call to me on my cell phone at 09:25 Hrs. GMT. You told me that all
25 corrections of Disciplinary Hearing of 3rd February 2006 had been made, and I was needed with immediate effect at Barclays Plaza, Mezzanine 6, to sign them off.
It therefore means that it took only one hour and 14 minutes to verify and validate all 25 corrections, and ensure that I was not trying to doctor the minutes, because 25 corrections to a brief document like that is big. Secondly, it took only one hour and 14 minutes to get in touch with all the panelists of the
Disciplinary Hearing of 3rd February 2006, to enable them confirm that the 25 corrections were a true reflection. Finally, it took only one hour and 14 minutes to do a cross check with the investigating officers to ensure consistency in my statements and submissions.
I am further forced to compare the above with investigations into the purported Nicholas Colin Olivier Watney fraud case investigation, which were concluded as below:
1. Disciplinary Hearing conducted on 2nd December 2004
2. Was sent minutes of Disciplinary Hearing, one week later on 9th December 2004
3. Submitted corrections of minutes of Disciplinary Hearing on 13th December 2004
4. Was sent the corrected draft of minutes of Disciplinary Hearing of 2nd December 2004 on 2nd February 2005, after one month and 20 days, and not
after one hour and 14 minutes
5. Signed and submitted corrected draft of minutes of Disciplinary Hearing of 2nd December 2004 on 4th February 2005.
6. Received verdict of purported investigation on 5th April 2005, after 2 months.
This is the 5th time I am being forced to guide you on how to properly, correctly and legally do your job.
Despite the fact that corrections of minutes of Disciplinary Hearing of 3rd February 2006 were regularised in a record one hour and 14 minutes on
Monday, 13th February 2006, you did not so much as bother to respond to my four letters below of 13th February 2006, 26th January 2006, 5th January 2006 and 28th December 2005, which not only point out violations against the so called Barclays guidelines, but even more disturbingly, criminal violations of the Laws of the Republic of Kenya.
Amongst several other things your Office has totally refused to respond to the following queries:
(i) Why am I the only member of staff under investigation in the matter of the Jones Mutua Mule, when the documents were handled by at least five other members of staff at Barclays Advisory and Registrar Services Limited?
(ii) Are investigations into the thirteen other fraud cases mentioned in my letter below of 28th December 2005, which I am made to understand have grown to sixteen during the period of my suspension, being handled with the same comical pace of urgency as the Jones Mutua Mule case?
I specifically draw you attention to Page 17 of the "The Standard” of Thursday, 9th February 2006, which carries the story of one of the mentioned frauds that have been established during the period I have been on suspension. The fraud is for East African Breweries Limited shares worth US $ 994,754 and the story is carried under the heading “KRA boss summoned”. It further pains me to think that I submitted reports on 9th July 1998 and 30th July 1998 that cautioned against the strong possibility of such occurrences, but they both ignored contemptuously.
I have cooperated with your purported investigations to the extent that is permissible.
I will not sign the purportedly rectified and corrected draft of Disciplinary Hearing of 3rd February 2006, because doing so will give credence and
legitimacy to a flawed and criminal process, that has violated both good practice and the Laws of the Republic of Kenya.
You are at liberty to take whatever action you choose, including dismissing me.
Yours faithfully,
Michael Mundia Kamau

Dear Madam
I have this morning, Monday, 13th February 2006, submitted corrections of minutes of Disciplinary Hearing of 3rd February 2006, at your Barclays Plaza,
M6 office. There are 25 corrections in total.
I am however particularly concerned that the figure of possible loss is indicated as 514,364.05 Kenya Shillings, when infact my role is limited to immobilisation of only the Barclays Bank of Kenya Limited shareholding. The Standard Chartered Bank of Kenya Limited shareholding was verified for immobilisation by a different officer at Barclays Advisory and Registrar Services Limited, and not myself. I find it strange that your so called thorough investigations have not established this basic fact despite my 60 day suspension on half pay. This
confirms my earlier assertion of victimisation and persecution.
This is the 4th time that I am being made to point out outrageously petulant, juvenile, elementary and comical omissions and violations. These omissions and violations are deliberate and geared towards my speedy dismissal, because neither your Office nor anyone else, has bothered to respond. You people want me so badly that you are prepared to go to any lengths. You
will have your day.
I further regret that Mr. Charles Kiarie was part of the panel on 3rd February 2006, yet the 30th Januray 2006 notification had clearly stated that the panel
would consist of Mr. Elly Odhong and Mr. Paul Russo. When I enquired from Mr. Paul Russo and Mr. Elly Odhong about this, they both brushed it aside by
stating, “Ahhh! It’s OK”. Had I come with my lawyer to the Disciplinary Hearing, which I would have loved to, would he have been admitted on the strength of an assertion of “Ahhh! It’s OK”?
Finally, I regret that I have not received responses from either Mr. Abdi Mohamed or Ms. Caroline Armstrong, to my letters below of 26th January 2006, 5th January 2006 and 28th December 2005.
Yours faithfully,
Michael Mundia Kamau
