Cecil Miller has obtained orders blocking further development of the land but the occupiers have previously disregarded the directive of the court to keep off the land. The High Court on Monday directed the officer commanding Langata police division to enforce the court order barring any activity on the disputed land. The court had on September 3 directed that any development or transactions on the land be halted until the petition filed by Da Gama Rose is heard and determined. The Ministry of Lands, through their legal representative, however accused Da Gama Rose of engaging in “sideshows” and insisted that the matter proceed to a full hearing. The Ministry through Deputy Chief Lands Registrar Geoffrey Swanya Birundu has identified Telesource as the registered owner of the land. The National Land Commission, in a letter dated May 10, 2013, however identified Da Gama Rose as the rightful owner of the property. Da Gama Rose claims to have purchased the land through his company Muchanga Investments Limited in 1982 at Sh1.2 million from Arnold Bradley. Telesource on the other hand is said to have purchased the land from a John Kamau Mugo in 2005. Mugo has been enjoined in the suit and is expected to give testimony on how he acquired the land.
