If the woman failed to do so, the Judge ordered Latiff to breach the locks to get access to his property. That was what he did – breach the locks.Mrs Latiff is reported to have violated five previous court orders of a similar nature. An act, her relatives say constituted grave disregard for the local judiciary.Latiff, 87, and his wife Lilian,Marlon Humphrey Jersey, 81, made headlines a few years ago after he was locked out of his matrimonial home in Bel Air Park.

She reportedly refused to surrender the gate keys. Mr. Latiff was therefore forced to break the lock to gain access to his home.Shirene Latiff, the couple’s daughter said that there has been reluctance to file an order of contempt against her elderly mother “because at 81 years old the authorities will tend to be sympathetic towards her.

She proceeded to apply for a deed of title (Transport), registering the property in her name only.“There was a lot of trust” and Mr Latiff never bothered to change the registration of title documents when he returned to Guyana four years after the purchase.Thirty years later, that trust was breached when the wife expressed that she has disposed of the property by giving it to one of their 11 children to the exclusion of all others, including the owner, Mr Latiff.In an attempt to justify her actions the wife told a story and swore that Mr Latiff ‘abandoned’ her when he went to the US leaving her to ‘cut rice with grass knife’ to make a living and support herself.But,http://www.airmaxfantasy.us.com/574-New-Balance/, when Mr. Latiff was locked out of his matrimonial home in Bel Air Park, he moved to the courts to secure his rights to his property. |
