Holding

The application has no merit and is dismissed with costs.

Facts

The applicant, KIZITO AURA, claimed adverse possession of the suit land since 1983. The respondents, NAVNIT SHAH and AMRISTLAL LALJI SHAH, claimed the land was registered to them and the applicant was a tenant who defaulted in rent payments.

Issues

  1. Whether the applicant has established a prima facie case for adverse possession.
  2. Whether the applicant concealed material facts when obtaining interim orders.

Reasoning

The court found that the applicant concealed material facts and failed to establish a prima facie case for adverse possession. The Rent Restriction Tribunal case was instituted first and the applicant moved to this court after the interim orders were obtained.

Outcome

Dismissed
