Court
TZHCCOMD

The Defendant defaulted on the loan facilities as admitted and evidenced by the Plaintiff. The voiding of the mortgage in a separate land case rendered the loans unsecured but did not extinguish the repayment obligation. The facility agreement provided for contractual and penal interest in case of default. The Plaintiff proved its case on a balance of probabilities and is entitled to the claimed sums, interest, and costs.

Court
TANZLII

The Respondents failed to specifically deny the existence and terms of the loan agreement in their pleadings, amounting to an admission. The evidence established that the Appellant advanced TZS 123,000,000 to the Respondents, who failed to repay. The Appellant is entitled to repayment of the principal sum and general damages at 2% per annum from the due date until payment in full, but not to contractual or statutory interest as the loan was advanced out of friendship, not as a business transaction.
