20140917 TZHC Iringa3

The appellant had no merit in any of his grounds of appeal. Representation by power of attorney was proper; the appellant was the correct party for execution; the judicial notice of a separate High Court case was irrelevant to the present execution; and the time limitation issue had already been resolved. The appeal was dismissed in its entirety with costs, and execution against the appellant was ordered to proceed.
