“RANGERS chief Charles Green’s trusted moneyman secretly texted ex-Ibrox owner Craig Whyte last summer to request funds for the club’s takeover, it was claimed last night.
Imran Ahmad asked the shamed tycoon for a payment of £137,500 to push the deal through during an chummy SMS exchange in May 2012.
In one text sent at the height of the Gers takeover saga, Ahmad calls him “mate” before apparently asking for the money to be transferred to his MUM’S account.
Whyte, 42, claims he has phone messages confirming the transaction — and Ahmad’s mother’s bank details.
Last night one source said: “If this is true it just gets murkier and murkier.”
The latest revelations appear to show a cosy relationship between Green’s team and Whyte as the Yorkshire businessman tried to buy stricken Rangers last summer.
One text from Ahmad appears to suggest he was waiting for the deposit — to help fund an exclusivity payment guaranteeing Green as administrator Duff and Phelps’ preferred bidder for the club.
It reads: “Nothing received this morning mate.”
And a message dated May 12 from Ahmad to Whyte shows what is said to be the bank details of the powerbroker’s mother.
It’s followed by a further text four days later which says: “£137.5 received with thanks.”
A Letter before Claim legal document sent by Whyte to Green and the England-based financier reads: “Craig Whyte is in possession of a text from Imran Ahmad dated 12th May, 2012, providing the bank account details of Imran Ahmad’s mother.”
Another passage in the papers — which set out the Monaco-based businessman’s latest allegations — states: “Craig Whyte is in possession of a text from Imran Ahmad dated 16th May, 2012, confirming receipt of the £137.5K.”
Last night Rangers confirmed the cash WAS paid into Ahmad’s mother’s account — so Green’s consortium could shield their dealings with Whyte as they attempted to keep him onside while they tried to buy his shares.
A club spokesman said: “Imran Ahmad paid the £200,000 exclusivity fee himself. This amount was paid well in advance of any money ever appearing from Craig Whyte.
“The £137,500 dropped into the account of Mr Ahmad’s mother because no one involved in the takeover wanted any of the disgraced former owner’s money to go near the business account. He could never again be involved or associated with the club.”
The spokesman said Whyte’s payment was made at a time when Rangers could have been saved from liquidation by a CVA agreement — meaning Green would have needed Whyte’s shares to buy the club.”
