JUDGMENT<o:p></o:p>

</div>On the 17th day of April 2014,
the Plaintiff personally commenced this action per her lawful attorney, before
later engaging a lawyer. The reliefs sought from the Court are:<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>a.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
A
Declaration of title to all that piece of land approximately 0.74 acres at East
Pantang known as Plot Numbers 64 &amp; 66 Tetteh Tsuru Street, Plot Number 2, 1st
Link Road and Plot Number 1<o:p></o:p>b.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;Recovery of possession of the said land <o:p></o:p>c.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;Perpetual injunction against the Defendants <o:p></o:p>d.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;General Damages for trespass and<o:p></o:p>e.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;(i) An order for the demolition on the

is his sister and the third is his brother in law. On 15th November
2000, the Plaintiff’s grantor by name, Adu Kofi Djin granted the subject matter
lands to the Plaintiff. The instrument evidencing the transaction was stamped
and plotted as number N6718.<o:p></o:p>The
Plaintiff entered into possession of the land, put up pillars and had her
documents first plotted in the records of the Land Commission. She subsequently
registered the land and obtained Land
Certificate Number GA 25010 dated 11th September 2007. In
October 2005, Anthony Koranteng went to the Madina Police Station to lodge a
complaint that the Plaintiff’s land belongs to him. On 13th October
2005, while the Plaintiff was fencing part of her land, she received a call
form one Inspector Quarshie inviting her to the Madina Police Station to appear
to answer the claim made over the land. <o:p></o:p>After
giving her version to the Police, both parties were warned not to enter the
land to work on it but should rather go to the Lands Commission to conduct a
search. The search disclosed that the two parcels of land were not at the same
area, so the parties were asked to go to the Survey Department. Each party paid
