rei vindication-ADMISSION OF THE CORPUS- is proof of the corpus required A V Arnolis Vs Mrs Miriam Lawrence CA (SC) application No 45/80- Soza, J stated as follows ... Quote "Section 184 of the Civil Procedure Code requires the court to act on the admissions in the pleadings and on the evidence led before it. It must be borne in mind that the issues are framed on the responsibility of the court only on material questions that are in controversy and regarding which evidence to be led. Matters that are admitted in the pleadings will not be raised in the issues and no evidence need be led on them. What a party must seek to establish by evidence is so much of the material part of his case that is not admitted in his opponents pleadings" - Unquote (Emphasis is not that of Soza J) TO VIEW A SIMILAR CASE TYPE ON THE VIEW BLOGGER SEARCH BAR "ADMISSION OF TITLE BY THE LICENSEE"

What law governs the granting or remanding of an accused or suspect person? The law that governs the granting or remanding of an accused or suspect person is the Bail Act No. 30 of 1997. This Act provides for the release on bail of persons suspected or accused of being concerned in committing or having committed an offense. It also provides for the granting of anticipatory bail and other related matters.

It prevails over the provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure Act and other written laws, except for the Release of Remand Prisoners Act, No. 8 of 1991.
