AFFIDAVIT
REPORTING IN TERMS OF S34 OF THE PREVENTION AND COMBATING OF
CORRUPT
ACTIVITIES ACT
I, the undersigned,
Bartholomew Bernard Joseph Henderson
Do hereby make oath and say that:
1. I am an adult male with identity number (XXXXXXXXXX084), presently residing at XX
XXXXXXXXX Milnerton, Cape Town South Africa.
2. I have been a practicing Fraud Examiner since 1994.
3. My most recent assignments include delivering Anti-Money Laundering training to
Zimbabwe Revenue Authority on contract to the Australian Government Aid Program
(AusAid); I have recently concluded a contract to investigate fraud and corruption in
the procurement process of the South African Companies and Intellectual
Property Commission on behalf of the Department of Trade and Industry.
4.- I am duty authorized and competent to depose to this affidavit.
5. The contents of this affidavit are true and correct and within my personal knowledge,
or arise from documents under my control, unless the contents indicate others.
6. I am intimately familiar with all documents, statements, investigations (civil and
criminal), and legal proceedings in South Africa relation to the matter of DR DS
Grieve Bridging Solutions (Pty) Ltd.
7. l have also been privy to victim impact statements.
8. I am responsible for referring the matter of, Mr. William Grieve and others to the
National Head of the Commercial Crime Unit of the South African Police Service,
Colonel Koos Jonker for possible criminal investigation.
9. On 1 December 2009 David S Grieve made an application for the sequestration of
his estate as well as an application for the liquidation of Bridging Solutions.
10. David S Grieve had as recently as September 2009 solicited a substantial loan from
Mr. William Grieve.
11. This was highly unethical in that DR DS Grieve Bridging Solutions (Pty) Ltd was at
that time, financially highly distressed with little or no chance of rehabilitation.
12. lt is highly unlikely and improbable that anyone, knowing all the facts would, in their
right mind advance a loan under the distressed economic circumstances that
prevailed at DR DS Grieve Bridging Solutions (Pty) Ltd.
13. lt is my view that Dr. DS Grieve with wilful intent, made a material misrepresentation
- in the form of a significant omission, with intent to deceive, that has resulted in Mr.
William Grieve suffering severe prejudice.
14. it is also my contention that the entire prejudice suffered in this scam between local
and trans-national victims exceeds US$ 5million.
15. I also suspect, based on convincing evidence and representations, that the scam
involves numerous parties operating in concert and that this particular scam meets
the requirements of the definitions of Fraud, Embezzlement, Organized and Trans-National Crime involving the laundering of the proceeds of crime.
I know and understand the contents of this declaration. I have no objection in taking the pre-scribed oath. I consider the pre-scribed oath to be binding on my conscience.
