    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCA277/2007

    Plaintiff failed to prove he occupied the Disputed Land since late 1979 and therefore failed to establish adverse possession for the requisite statutory period; credibility of plaintiff and supporting witnesses was rejected in light of internal inconsistencies and conflict with contemporaneous aerial and documentary evidence; claim dismissed and defendant's counterclaim granted (non-monetary relief and mesne profits subject to limitation).
