Ismaili.NET - Heritage F.I.E.L.D.

Dear President Mawji, (President UK Council/LIF), Noordin Nanji (ICAB) and M Eboo (LIF). (cc Nagib Tajdin, Alnaz Jiwa, Shafik, A Bhaloo, M Manji, Malik Talib, M Keshavjee, E Ruplani and Amyn Kassim Lakha, & Azim Lakhani)

Dear All

Shafik wants an apology from Nagib and Alnaz. They have done what Hazar Imam has said. Shafik has not. Bearing in mind the following, and what Nagib and Alnaz have said below. Please consider my further request.

1. Nagib and Alnaz have never questioned Imam's authority or copyright
2. Shafik with Azim Lakhani, M Manji, A Bhaloo, M Keshavjee et al circulated false and misleading announcements, Talika, information, and affidavits against Nagib & Alnaz. This was before and since the filing of the lawsuit.
3. Nagib submitted evidence of forgeries to you, and ICAB, (who have refused to investigate on the basis that they the claim have no mandate to even entertain a complaint from a murid who is holding a position in the Jamats Institutions. They refuse to give a “full” copy of our constitution and or Farmans regarding their mandate on not accepting complaints against a murid who is a an appointee)
4. Filing a lawsuit for sharing Farmans which Imam has said we must all do, and which Imam said Nagib can do in 1972. (Hazar Imam remembered the Mehmani in the meeting in October 2010. Imam and court have allowed us to retain and share them.)
5. The lawsuit was started without any effort to resolve the lawsuit internally. Shafik with others circulated false announcements to the Jamats to say that “every" effort was made with Nagib and Alnaz to resolve the matter internally.
6. Nagib and Alnaz agreed to meet Shafik with you and or top leaders involved to resolve this internally. They have refused to do so, so far.
7. Nagib and Alnaz have done what Imam said on 15th October 2010. Shafik has not.
8. Shafik and Manji are not meeting, let alone ‘working together’ with Alnaz and Nagib’ as Imam asked them to do on 15th October 2010
9. Shafik, Bhaloo or Manji, did not consult or involve other Leaders and or Local Mukhis. (They said in court that Hazar Imam had asked them to do so on about 30th March 2010. They did not. Instead Shafik went around telling everyone that Hazar Imam was personally handling the lawsuit and Hazar Imam was personally giving instructions to Gray. This is also blatantly not true)
10. Imam asked for the lawsuit to be ended on 15th October 2010. Shafik and Manji/Malik have not done so
11. Malik Talib went incognito to Nagib's printers and sought information and names of those to whom books were sent to. (Malik was the Vice President at the material time and 15th October 2010)
12. Imam says our constitution must be available to every member of the Jamat. This is not so and is being actively blocked. (Even the basic part of the constitution in some countries e.g. Afghanistan, & USA.)
13. Imam says Farmans must be given to the Jamat to read. These are being blocked and are not given by them. Even to read in JK in many countries
14. Shafik, Azim and Keshavjee et al, said in their announcement that Hazar Imam has authorised the publication of Farmans. This was 5 years ago. These are still not published or available to the Jamat.
15. .Shafik and Bhaloo filed affidavits which they say in court that Hazar Imam never asked them to file. Hazar Imam has not filed a single affidavit. (Aziz and Shafik have admitted this in court. Would you or anyone else file an affidavit if Imam did not ask, and Imam did not file an affidavit, and Imam did not even see your affidavit and that too in an unprecedented case against his own brothers and Imam’s children for sharing his guidance which he said they can and we must all do)
This lawsuit can be ended internally and with dignity and respect for all. I therefore request you to arrange a meeting at which you, Shafik, Nagib and Alnaz are present. Failing that for you to collectively request a meeting in the presence of Hazar Imam at which Alnaz, Nagib and others you wish, are present.
I hope and pray that you will now do so and avoid this going to court and Hazar Imam having to give guidance in Court again. (see below)

I do not wish to be dragged into this discussion so this is my last post in this email list.

So I will be brief: There was a lawsuit based on the affidavit of Bhaloo and Sachedina. There were forgeries in document they presented to us, which WE were the one to file first in Court with the forensic un-contradicted report. There were defenses filed and my counter claim in my defense about forgeries which I agreed to remove against Michel Parkes the secretary (Staff, not officer) who was only the messenger, not the forger. To end the matter it was necessary to remove that counter claim.

Basically as a face saving for all, the judgement sought would just say that we accept copyright (which we had never denied anyway). After Hazar Imam was gone, I made several more concessions to Gray and Sachedina hoping that they would reasonably obey Imam's instructions to put the matter to rest with a consent judgement. They did not.

second: I did not have to "ask" if Imam remembered the Mehmani of 1992. The Imam Himself said so without me asking, and he explained to Sachedina, Gray and Manji, though he was not obliged, that not only he remembered the Mehmani VERY WELL but the reason why he gave us the instructions to continue publishing.

Third, I am not a lawyer, I am first and foremost a Canadian Ismaili and Ismailis do not question the Imam.

fourth: I was not attentive to the sign language between Gray and the typist and the manipulation happening.

I have said the same thing since 5 years. Let Sachedina and Manji give their version of what Imam said for half an hour and why He needed half an hour to say what they suggest He may have said and why THEY put what he said "off record" and why the tape for which they did not let me organise under pretense of safety issues, is now empty of whatever Imam said. And if they thought Imam will support them in what He would say, why they put Him "off record".

Within a year, there will be a trial for the Reference process for which the Mediation has not succeeded.

That trial will last 2 days in front of Justice Harrington, the same Judge who has already ordered that the Reference money should be personally be paid to the Imam, who will choose how to spend it. The "Plaintiff" Gray will ask millions from defendants. All the money he has charged the Karsaji to fight the Defendant.

But a trial is an interesting place because witnesses are called to prove this point.

And the Plaintiff and the Defendants will equality have the legal opportunity to call Hazar Imam to the witness box and the Imam will then openly say whatever he wishes to say.

So lets see whose patience and whose trust gets rewarded on that day.

Dear brothers:

I am drawn to write because of speculative comments made in these emails. These equate to gossip.

First of all, when we met Hazar Imam on October 15, 2010, He made it clear that He did not issue the Claim or that He wanted Farmans books distribution to be permanently stopped.

I will not write all details again as I have noted them before.

One point should suffice, for the intelligent. Just before finishing Hazar Imam asked Mohammad Manji and Shafik Sachedina why they could not work together with US, Nagib and me.

This one point should suffice for the intelligent.

Why court case continued.

SS opposed Hazar Imam (MM also opposed but on another point) and wanted Hazar Imam to order return of all Farman Books. Hazar refused to do so.

SS and MM felt that if they continue case they can get Judge to have all books returned. That did not happen.

So SS used courts to get as much info from us as possible for names and information. And now SS wants us to apologise and says that if we apologize they will not want any money from us.

We have refused to apologize.

About there costs issue. Just so that people know, we consented to the costs of $30,000 without questioning or even asking for Bill of Costs and challenge costs as they lost the bid to have all books returned.
