AFFIDAVIT IN REPLY TO CHAMBER SUMMONS

I, TAHIRA KANWAL C/O M/S Dhakaba & Nkuutu Co. Advocates plot 12

applicant sworn by TAHIRA KANWAL have been read and
explained to me by my lawyer M/s Dhakaba & Nkuutu Co
Advocates and I do swear this affidavit in reply/rebuttal to all the
allegations therein.

3. That I am informed by my lawyers M/s Dhakaba & Nkuutu Co


Advocates which information I verily believe to be true that this
application is misconceived and baseless considering the fact
that the supporting affidavit thereof is full of falsehoods and
ought to be struck out with costs to the respondents.

4. That I am further informed by my said lawyers that this


application is improperly filed before this honourable court and
ought to be struck out as it lacks a summary of evidence and
appoint of law shall be raised to that effect.
5. That this application is just intended to deprive the 2 nd respondent
and I from enjoying our quiet possession and use of the suit land.

6. That this Application is incompetent and unsustainable before this


court considering the fact that the Applicants herein do not have
locus and a preliminary objection shall be raised to that effect to
have the same dismisses.

7. That I wish to categorically state that, the applicants have never


been in possession of any part of the suit land and the alleged
purchase of their respective portions of the same is un known to
me.

8. That I am the former owner the suit land after having acquired
the same by purchase from a one Jamil and I obtained a title
certificate vide” FRV JJA 319 FOLIO 16”. A copy of the title is
hereto attached and marked “A”.

9. That after purchase of the said land, I took immediate possession


by carrying out forestry activities/ tree planting and I am still in
active possession and use of the same, harvesting my trees
thereon.

10. That however, I sold and transferred the suit land to the 2 nd
respondent who shall take possession of the same after the
harvesting of my trees.

11. That in specific reply to paragraph 10 of the Affidavit in reply, I


firmly state that I am in active possession of the suit land and the
Applicants have never occupied any part of the said land up to
date.

12. That before purchase of the said land, I carried out due diligence
and indeed confirmed the land was free from any encumbrances
and I have since been in quiet possession of the same without
any interference or any third party claims whatsoever from any
one.

13. The Applicants’ allegations f tress pass are misconceived since


the suit land is currently under possession and use by the
respondents 3rd respondent.

14. That the 3rd respondent has never trespassed on the suit land
since he legally acting in my powers and all his activities are
premised on our forestry activities being carried out on the said
land.

15. That I legally complied and followed the required procedure


while processing and obtaining the said title certificate for the
said land and there has never been any form of committed during
the execution of the above transactions as alleged by the

Nkuutu Co. Advocates which information I verily believe to be
true that since the Applicants who are not in possession and/or
occupation of the suit land, shall not suffer any irreparable
loss/damage if the application is not granted and the balance of
convenience is not in their favour.
