AS Ventbunkers issued the following press release about recent illegal activities of lawyer Martins Kveps (article in news portal BNN):
Riga, Latvia: On December 28, 2011, an associate of Martins Kveps‘ law firm once again submitted to the Register of Enterprises brutally falsified documents of a Shareholders‘ Meeting, which never took place and which had never been convoked. This is the fifth attempt of the notorious Kveps to illegally seize control of the company Ventbunkers, one of the most important enterprises involved in the Oil Transit Business in the Latvian port of Ventspils.
On June 27, 2011, the legitimate Management Board of Ventbunkers convoked a Shareholders‘ Meeting to take place on December 20, 2011. The legitimate Shareholders of AS Ventbunkers properly carried out this Shareholders’ Meeting. More than 70% of the Shareholders were represented at the Meeting. The results of this legitimate Shareholders‘ Meeting were submitted to the Register of Enterprises and properly registered on the following day.
But then, three days later, on the 23rd of December 2011, Martins Kveps dared to try to hold another Shareholders‘ Meeting of Ventbunkers, which had never been convoked by the Management Board and never took place. From the list of participants, it becomes obvious for whom Kveps made this brutal falsification. Kveps represented the company Topmar Baltic Investments, beneficially owned by Oleg Stepanov. Janis Berkis represented the company Kement, owned by his father Olaf Berkis. Additionally two other companies, Steropes Limited and Gyges Limited, participated even though they are not and never were shareholders of A/S Ventbunkers. These two companies belong to Igors Skoks and Gennady Shevcovs respectively. However, the most intriguing detail is as follows: Liga Lemberga, Anrijs Lembergs and Optima Management also participated in the false meeting. It is well known that these three Shareholders are acting in the interest of Aivars Lembergs. Therefore, it is equally obvious that Lembergs also stands behind this brutal falsification.
The time of false and illegal corporate actions seems not to be over yet in Latvia. With a simple and criminal falsification, such as was made by Kveps and his cohorts, it seems to be possible for anyone to submit documents to the Register of Enterprises, have them registered and give the (wrong) appearance to the public of changes to the legitimate management of a company. Ventbunkers is submitting a criminal complaint to the investigation authorities. It is hoped that the General Prosecutors‘ Office will intervene and stop such brutal falsifications and criminal acts from reoccurring in the future.
