The plaintiff did not attach any document indicating the identity of the shareholders in Bruno Trading sa, what was the deceased's connection to the company and what his connection was and the source of his right to receive funds deposited in the account owned by it, even if I assume that he was authorized to sign on its behalf, nor did she present any version in this regard.
It should be noted that during the evidentiary hearing, one of the plaintiff's attorneys – Adv. Billett – claimed that the deceased was a beneficiary of the account, but this is a claim that is not supported by the evidence, since in the document that was supposed to be the approval of the Singapore branch, the deceased was mentioned only as an authorized signatory on behalf of the Panamanian company and was presumed to have signed the document in its actual name – nothing more, and the additional plaintiff's attorney, Adv. Sheffer, did not repeat this in part in his summaries on her behalf and presented only as an authorized signatory.
- The plaintiff claimed in her affidavit that after receiving a duly authenticated copy of the inheritance order, the Singapore branch agreed to transfer the money to her from the said account, but only to a bank account in Israel, a claim that was also not supported by any evidence.
However, after the defendant asked for additional information regarding the source of the money and the deceased's affiliation with him, the plaintiff's counsel contacted the branch in Singapore in order to obtain additional information, including the date the account was opened, the amount received when it was opened, how it was received, whether the bank knew the source of the funds, whether there had been additional transfers since the account was opened and references were requested, but the bank did not transfer any information despite the attorney's inquiries in writing and by telephone.
To the extent that these are indeed funds that the deceased is entitled to receive, and following the succession order that the plaintiff is entitled to receive, and the Singapore branch received the verified inheritance order and conducted contacts with the plaintiff as his heir to the point of expressing a willingness to transfer the money to Israel, the claim that he refused to provide her with any additional information is very puzzling – a claim that was not supported by any evidence.
