UNITED AVIATION GROUP OWNER JONATHAN WOLPE HAS BEEN ARRESTED
The owner of UNITED AVIATION GROUP (South Africa) Jonathan Wolpe was arrested today in Johannesburg, as the editors of the Global Aviation Register of Defaulter companies BLACKLIST.AERO have just learnt.
This was reported to us by EYEWITNESS NEWS journalist Orrin SINGH who previously described one of Jonathan Wolpe's fraud episodes in his article. It was on this episode that Volpe was arrested. It is hoped that in the future he will be held legally accountable for his other acts that we wrote about earlier.
After BLACKLIST.AERO wrote about Jonathan Wolpe's debts a year ago and many contractors stopped working with him, he had a choice: either sell some of his considerable real estate and at least some of his favourite thoroughbred horses in order to pay his debts and restore his good name.
Or embark on more and more scams just to maintain his luxurious lifestyle, organizing horse racing tournaments and football competitions under the auspices of the UNITED AVIATION GROUP. He chose the second, and here is the result... The other heroes of our articles also always have a choice. I wish they would not repeat the mistakes of Jonathan Volpe, but reality tells a different story.
The BLACKLIST.AERO editorial staff will continue to follow the fate of one of the main actors of the cases in the BLACKLIST.AERO Register.
P.S. End how he jumped, how he jumped...

Tonight, an aircraft IL-76TD with reg. number RA-76370 of ABAKAN AIR (PUMV FZE) arrived from Uganda to OMDW/Dubai Al Maktoum Airport. This company is a defaulter, against which a case has been created in the Global Aviation Register of Defaulter companies BLACKLIST.AERO. Claim amount is USD 1,037,841.60
For almost a year now, the BLACKLIST.AERO administration has had information about a significant part of Abdullah Al-Sayed’s assets, which he acquired with the money stolen from NEXUS FLIGHT OPERATIONS creditors. However, the information we obtained was kept away from the public. Instead of making it public, we decided to pass on all the information we had to the trustee Jumana Majdi Qutub in Saudi Arabia, who is searching for NEXUS assets for subsequent compensation of losses to the creditors of this company.
Can one company become a 39-Cases Defaulter? As the situation with the Nigerian operator ARIK AIR shows - it can if lawlessness is carried out and patronized at the state level.
This was not a voting with any outcome we knew we wanted. Both options have their advantages and challenges for us. But it was important for us to understand the real sentiments among active participants of the aviation market. Because for us these are the people who are called policy makers.
