Facts

The Plaintiff, Chulu Token Enterprises Limited, claims ownership of a motor vehicle (registration number KAR 088A Toyota Pick Up) that was borrowed by Defendant Emily Siele but not returned. Defendant Education Media Corporation (EMC) was later added as a Defendant. Plaintiff sought to have the vehicle released to EMC for repair and storage, and to inspect it.

Issues

  1. EMC's existence as a legal entity
  2. Mr. Kiniaru's status as a representative of EMC

Reasoning

The court found that EMC is a properly constituted body corporate and that the previous orders were made for the preservation of the vehicle. The court declined to interfere with the orders as leaving the vehicle in a police station would lead to its deterioration.

Outcome

Application dismissed

Orders

  • Orders to release the vehicle to EMC's representative and to show cause for contempt if not released

Remedies

  • Costs awarded to the Plaintiff
