[1] The Applicant seeks a relief that the registration of erf 2216, Engcobo that took place on 19 June 2001 into the name of the Second Respondent be declared null and void ab initio; that the Third Respondent be ordered to cancel such registration; and that the First and Second Respondent be ordered to cause such property to be transferred into the name of the Applicant.

[2] The relief sought is based on the contentions made on the founding affidavit that the First Respondent perpetrated fraudulent acts manipulated the transfer and deliberately altered and/or swapped around erven 2216 and 2215 to benefit the Second Respondent unduly.  Those assertions are premised on the documents, attached to the founding affidavit, described as annexures “B”, “I”, “J” and “K”.
