However, when it comes to the ownership of the ZPC, things start to become a little unsettled as there has been a constant conflict between the Finsbury Investments and the Ventriglia family. As per verified records, it is known to all that the existence of Zambezi Portland Cement Factory took place with the contribution of Dr. Rajan Mahtani, an integral part of Finsbury Investments. Huge amount of money was spent on the development of the cement factory and moreover, most of the success stories of the ZPC have been written under the management of Finsbury Investment.
In February 2007, there was a written agreement between the Finsbury Investments and the Ventriglia family that the former would hold 58% stake at the ZPC and the latter would hold the remaining 42%. But, with the passage of time the Ventriglia family started to dishonour the agreement and started to claim that Dr. Mahtani had forged signatures to have the ownership of ZPC under his hand.
With almost a decade later, the same trouble continues to take place at ZPC as the Ventriglia family is constantly after Dr. Rajan Mahtani. On June 25 2015, Dr. Rajan Mahtani has received a judicial review from the Lusaka High Court whereby he can now challenge the same claim and ensure that he can out this matter to a permanent closure.
