Plaintiff’s case:
It’s the plaintiff’s case that she was a tenant in the defendant’s tenements paying rental fees of 480,000/ per annum. In the year 2020, the defendant increased the rental fee to 500,000/= per annum, upon which the plaintiff first made a deposit of 160,000/= with promise of paying up the balance later. That when the plaintiff attempted to pay up the balance, the defendant rejected the same stating that he had got another tenant, locked the premises and confiscated various properties belonging to the plaintiff.
Defendant’s case:
The defendant filed a written statement of defence disputing the claim. He admitted to having rented out the premises to the plaintiff, first in 2019 at an annual rental fee of 480,000/= and later in the year, 2020, he increased the rental fee to 1,000,000/= upon carrying out renovations. That instead of negotiating with him on the increments, the plaintiff instead reported criminal cases of trespass and malicious damage to property against the defendant, the files of which have since been closed for lack of evidence. He denied closing the premises and asserted that it is police which locked the same and he has never confiscated the plaintiff’s properties as alleged.
