Facts of the Case
Background
The applicants, former owners of 10 Gayton Avenue, Sunridge, Harare, sold the property to the first respondent in October 2009 and remained as tenants under a lease expiring 31 March 2010. They failed to vacate as agreed, and the Magistrates' Court granted an eviction order on 19 August 2010. The applicants filed an urgent chamber application on 26 August 2010 to interdict execution of the eviction order, claiming the sale was fraudulently obtained and that they had filed a review application.
