Facts of the Case

Background

The sheriff attached movable property at stand no. 499 Goodwin Road, Willowvale, Harare, believing it belonged to the judgment debtor, B. M. Graphics. The appellant claimed ownership, arguing it owned the stand by virtue of being the sole shareholder of Jon's Engineering (Private) Limited, the registered owner of the stand. The High Court found the appellant failed to prove ownership and dismissed its claim.
