An attempt by a woman to grab her nephew's land has failed after the Environment and Lands Court ordered her to vacate the property.
Justice Oguttu Mboya ordered Rachel Nduta Mwaura to vacate and hand over the one-acre land in Uthiru, Nairobi County to her nephew Raoul Emanuel Muchene within three months or be forcefully evicted.
"The evidence placed in court demonstrates that the woman was on a mission to defeat and defraud her brother's son. She abused the courtesy which her brother extended to her to stay on the disputed land and cannot claim ownership," ruled Mboya.
