IZERE v MUKANTAGARA N’ABANDI

The reasons advanced by Izere Pio for staying execution were insufficient, as there was no evidence of imminent risk that the land would be irretrievably lost if he succeeded in the main claim. The mere pendency of an opposition does not justify a stay of execution. The claim for damages by Mukantagara Bonifride was also unsupported as neither he nor his counsel appeared to substantiate the claim.

  • Inheritance
  • Partition of property
