Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in setting aside the judgments of the Trial Court and the First Appellate Court, which had affirmed the existence of a landlord-tenant relationship between the appellants-plaintiffs and the respondent-defendant. The Court emphasized that the establishment of such a relationship is crucial for a suit for possession to succeed. Consequently, the Supreme Court restored the Trial Court's judgment and allowed the appeal, granting the respondent two years to vacate the premises upon filing an undertaking.
