(8) That in 2013, Sparkle Properties Limited filed a suit in the Environment and Land Court of Kenya, Suit No. 265 of 2013 seeking to evict over 3500 Msambweni residents living in 500 households to pave way for her to develop the plot. (9) That the case was heard and judgement made on 24th February, 2020 in favor of Sparkle Properties Limited against the residents of Msambweni. (10) That among other things, the judge in his judgement ordered- (a) Mswambweni residents to pull down their houses and leave the land vacant. (b) Mswambweni residents to pay general trespass damages of Kshs1.05 million. (c) Msambweni residents to pay cost of the suit. (11) That if the court orders are executed, 3,500 people will be rendered homeless for being evicted from their ancestral land that they have lived on since 1938.
