Trustee files charges against investor Van den Berg
LANDGRAAF - Trustee P. Scholtens is going to file charges with the public prosecutor against E. van den Berg, director of the now closed hotel-restaurant Overste Hof in Landgraaf. The supervisory judge in the bankruptcies in which Van den Berg himself and his two investment companies are involved is likely to do the same.
Scholtes, who represents the interests of creditors in those bankruptcies, accuses Van den Berg of fraudulent bank breach, violation of the Securities Transactions Supervision Act (WTE) and perjury.
Chief Judge H. Groen is considering filing charges of fraudulent bank breach, violation of the WTE and forgery.
Superior Court plays an important role in the Van den Berg bankruptcies. In 2004, the previous owner of the hotel and catering business, W. Winthaegen, who is well known throughout the region, filed for bankruptcy of Van den Berg because, as a (candidate) buyer, he could not put the purchase price on the table. he owed Winthaegen more than 200,000 euros and could not pay it.
Van den Bergh already had major financial problems when he bought the Overste Hof, privately and with his investment companies Van den Berg Beheer and Berginvest. In 2004, those companies and Van den Berg personally were declared bankrupt. Trustee Scholtes ruled scathingly about Van den Berg's investment activities. He promised his clients golden mountains: sometimes even interest rates of one percent per day on their deposits.
But Van den Berg could not make it clear to Scholtes where he had actually invested the money entrusted to him, totaling more than two million euros. Van den Berg also had no license to invest money on behalf of people, which is why the trustee is filing charges of violation of the WTE. "Moreover, he was guilty of fraudulent bank breach. For example, Van den Berg still withdrew 6,500 euros from the estate after the bankruptcy was declared." During the interrogations under oath before the examining magistrate, Van den Berg was also guilty of perjury, Scholtes said.
