Telecoms company dismisses Oozi Cats after investigators found an Uzi Katz was named as fugitive defendant in US in 1990s
The chief executive of a London telecoms company has been fired after it alleged that he had been lying about his true identity for at least 17 years and was on the run from US police.
Oozi Cats, 56, was dismissed on Monday by Aim-listed Telit Communications after the company's private investigators found that he was in fact Uzi Katz, named by Boston's district court as a "fugitive defendant" wanted in connection with an alleged 1990s property scam.
