Why judges suspended hearing of Chelogoi Sh2bn land case
The Court of Appeal has suspended the hearing of a dispute over an 18-acre parcel of land, which is being claimed by a former provincial commissioner, pending the determination of an appeal filed by two businessmen.
The judge then ordered that the status quo be maintained, meaning that Mr Chelogoi continued occupying the land.
Mr Chelogoi argued that he was the registered owner of the land, having occupied it for more than 28 years.
