Facts of the Case

Background

The applicants, who are agents of FUSS DIAMONDS LTD (an Israeli company) in Zimbabwe, sought a declaratory order to be recognized as the company's lawful representatives and to receive outstanding payments of US$1,226,000 held by ZCDC. The Israeli company had appointed provisional liquidators in Israel, but the applicants alleged this was a fraudulent scheme to evade Zimbabwean debts.
