Facts

The Plaintiff, Aloys Kaven Chepkwony, sought an order that certain drilling equipment be given to his custody for safekeeping pending the hearing and determination of the suit. The equipment was originally purchased by World Vision Africa for a water drilling project in Pokot and later leased to Chepkwony. World Vision Africa ceased operations in Kenya, and the equipment was subsequently in the custody of the Defendant, World Vision Kenya.

Issues

  1. Whether the Plaintiff has a strong case to warrant a mandatory interlocutory injunction.
  2. Whether the Plaintiff has documentary evidence to prove he purchased the equipment.
  3. Whether the equipment is still in the custody of the Defendant.

Reasoning

The court found that the Plaintiff did not have a strong case, no documentary evidence to prove he purchased the equipment, and the equipment is no longer in the custody of the Defendant.

Outcome

Dismissed
