KAMPALA, UGANDA – Rajni Tailor, a prominent Asian businessman and former Buganda Kingdom minister, has been arrested and detained for defaulting on a $5,000 payment to the Madhvani Group.
This arrest comes after multiple members of the Indian community filed complaints against him, accusing him of failing to repay significant sums of money they had lent him.
Tailor’s financial troubles have been ongoing, with a history of defaulting on loans and issuing bounced checks. His detention highlights concerns over his ability to manage debts and fulfill payment terms.
As a key figure in Uganda’s Indian community, Tailor has held influential positions, advocating for economic cooperation and business development. However, his reputation has been marred by recurring financial disputes and allegations of obtaining money under false pretenses.
This is not Tailor’s first run-in with the law over financial issues. Previous cases have led to multiple lawsuits and police investigations, subjecting him to increased public scrutiny and criticism.
