We refer to our earlier announcements dated 14 September 2012, 19 September 2012 and 12 October 2012 on the above matter (“Announcements”). Unless otherwise stated, the abbreviations and definitions used throughout this announcement shall be the same as those previously defined in the Announcements.
We wish to update the consolidation Litigation Cases which was up for mention today, 12 October 2012, as follows:

a. The Counsel for the plaintiffs in both Suit No. SA-22-1-2011-I and SRA-21-1/3-2012 had made an oral application to withdraw both suits with liberty to file afresh on the following reasons:

      i. To ascertain the actual remaining number of the plaintiffs whose disputed parcels of land are still within the PL and the actual size of the said disputed parcels of land located within the PL.
        ii. To re-survey the disputed parcels of land within the PL as some of the plaintiffs disputed parcels of land straddle both the Native Communal Reserve and the PL and it would be complicated to amend the present pleadings.

    b. The Counsel for the plaintiffs in Suit No. 21-2-2010-II had made an oral application to de-consolidate Suit No. 21-2-2010-II from the other two (2) suits.


    Accordingly, the High Court Judge had made the following orders in relation to the consolidation Litigation Cases:

    a. Allowed the application to de-consolidate Suit No. 21-2-2010-II from the other two (2) suits and fixed the matter for further mention for Suit No. 21-1-2010-II on 23 January 2013; and
      b. Further allowed the application to withdraw both Suit No. SA-22-1-2011-I and SRA-21-1/3-2012 with liberty to file afresh and with cost.
