Chairman of Rasfish to sue Michael Ruben, Chief Project Officer of Pure Salmon.

By Michelle Singer 20 February 2022

The chairman of RasFish, Alain Weizman will sue Michael Ruben, Chief Project Officer of Pure Salmon, asking him for the total amount of damage suffered by RasFish for the conflict of interest. This amounts to $21 300 000.

RasFish was founded by Alain Weizman and Michael Ruben in order to develop business for the company 8F and Pure Salmon. Michael Ruben was approached by the company Pure Salmon and 8F to work exclusively and directly for them. Ruben accepted although this clearly represents a conflict of interest and a written contract between the parties stipulates this..
8F and Pure Salmon canceled the contract with RasFish so that Weizman could not receive any commission for the business introductions that had already been made. Rasfish solicited Yoram Layani for many months knowing he had very close relations with the Sultan of Brunei and could approach him to invest in RAS via 8F and Pure Salmon. Since then Brunei via the Ministry of Finance and Economy of Brunei have invested over $ 100 million.
8F and Pure Salmon are still bound by a written contract with Rasfish but are not respecting the conditions of this contract with regards to the Brunei agreement. The amount of the compensation requested, as quoted from the lawyers of Rasfish is upwards of 1.5 million dollars just for the year of 2020. Despite multiple written and oral attempts to recover the amounts owed, no commissions have been paid by 8F and Pure Salmon.

Mixed interests and non respected contracts are sullying the industry.
