Facts of the Case

Background

The case involves a long-standing property dispute over Stand 993 Salisbury Township (155 Samora Machel Avenue, Harare). Earnest Taurai Rambayi sold the property in 1996 but later attempted to cancel the sale. The property passed through several owners, eventually being registered to Richclover (Pvt) Ltd in 2016. Rambayi obtained a 2019 order purporting to cancel previous transfers and revive his title, leading to competing claims of ownership.
