Tenant claims eviction protection with unregistered rent agreement; HC denies relief

In this case of tenancy, the property owner’s counsel argued that the alleged unregistered rental agreement could not be admitted as evidence to establish the tenant’s claim. The argument was that the owner’s brother himself occupied the premises only through ‘permissive possession’. Therefore, he had no authority to let it out to another person. In this case of tenancy, the property owner’s counsel argued that the alleged unregistered rental agreement could not be admitted as evidence to establish the tenant’s claim.
