Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision that a misdescription of property number in a sale certificate does not invalidate the sale if the property's identity is otherwise clearly established. The Court ruled that the appellants' contention regarding the incorrect property number was unfounded, as the correct number was identifiable. Additionally, the Court held that subrogation could not be claimed by the second mortgagees due to the absence of an agreement regarding subrogation in the second mortgage deed.
