The Chief Executive Officer of Air Peace, Allen Onyema, has been cleared of business fraud allegations by an Atlanta district court.The ruling comes after a three-year investigation involving five US government agencies.The court found no evidence of loss to any bank in the indictment suit filed by the Northern District of Georgia's Attorney. Instead, Ebony Mayfield, a former Springfield Aviation Company staff, was ordered to pay a $4000 fine and serve probation.
“Our clients never took loans or credit from any American Bank and Mayfield was never paid the sum of $20,000 at any time to commit any fraud, as it is being peddled in some quarters.“There was no loss of money or any damage whatsoever to any third party. The American government admitted in Court that no bank suffered any financial loss in the matter.“Mayfield, like other Springfield Aviation Company Inc. staff, was only paid her bi-weekly salary and/or allowances,” the legal counsel clarified.
