HOW HE WAS RUMBLED

CLAIMS Oozi Cats was in fact ‘Uzi Katz’, a fugitive of the US justice system, first emerged in an Italian newspaper last week.

The paper is thought to have been investigating Telit Communications and Cats due to an ongoing probe by Italian prosecutors into the collapse of electronics man- ufacturer Bames. It is thought this led to investigators digging in to Cats’s past and discovered lawsuits filed in Boston in 1992 under the name Uzi Katz and his wife Ruth.

The allegations linking the two names together sent Telit Communications’s share price tumbling.
