Holding

The Court finds that the title deeds for plots 651 and 652 are valid and that the Plaintiff is the indefeasible and absolute proprietor of these plots.

Facts

Soft White Beach Limited purchased plots 651 and 652 from La Marina Ltd in 2006. The 1st and 2nd Defendants claim they hold a valid title to plot 393, which was sub-divided into plots 651 and 652.

Issues

  1. Validity of the title deeds for plots 651 and 652
  2. Ownership of plot 393
  3. Fraudulent facilitation of the 1st and 2nd Defendants' title

Reasoning

The Court relies on the testimony of the District Land Registrar, who states that the original title to plot 393 was canceled due to irregularities, and that the sub-division of plot 393 into plots 651 and 652 occurred after the cancellation.

Outcome

Plaintiff's claims for a declaration of invalidity and injunction are dismissed.
