The Ministry of Justice announces that it was constrained to secure from the Monrovia City Court a warrant of arrest for Mr. Roosevelt Quiah for the commission of the crime of forgery committed by him while he was on the soil of the Republic of Liberia. The Ministry says that its action grows out of the fact that Mr. Roosevelt Quiah, purporting to be acting by a corporation formed and operating under the laws of the Republic of Liberia, under the name and style of Liberia Iron Ore Company (Bong Mines), forged the signature of the Minister of Lands, Mines, and Energy, and the seal of the Ministry of Lands, Mines, and Energy, by which, under a purported Mineral Development Agreement and other documents, the Ministry of Lands, Mines, and Energy was stated to have granted a Class A Mining license and concession for twenty-five (25) years to the Liberia Iron Ore Company to prospect, explore and conduct iron ore mining activities in the Bong Mines and Wologisi areas. These representations were false and fraudulent as the documents were forged.
