Holding
The court finds that the Plaintiff has failed to demonstrate a prima facie case against the Defendant.
Facts
The Plaintiff claims to be the lawful and bona fide allottee of Plot No. 9923/A3/Saina Estate, while the Defendant claims to have been issued a letter of allotment for Plot A3/Saina Estate. The Plaintiff alleges that the Defendant trespassed and demolished his structures, while the Defendant disputes this and claims to have sold the allotted plot to a third party.
Issues
- whether the Plaintiff is entitled to the interlocutory injunction sought.
- whether the Defendant has encroached on the Plaintiff's plot.
Reasoning
The court notes that the numbers to the two plots are different and that the Defendant has sold the allotted plot to a third party who is already developing it. The Plaintiff's receipts for land rent/rates are for different plots.
Outcome
Denied
