Full Text
Where the immovable property sold is in the occupancy of the judgment-debtor or of some person on his behalf or of some person claiming under a title created by the judgment-debtor subsequently to the attachment of such property and a certificate in respect thereof has been granted under rule 94, the Court shall, on the application of the purchaser, order delivery to be made by putting such purchaser or any person whom he may appoint to receive delivery on his behalf in possession of the property, and, if need be, by removing any person who refuses to vacate the same.
Plain English Summary
Empowers the auction purchaser holding a Rule 94 Sale Certificate to obtain actual physical possession (khas dakhal) by evicting the judgment-debtor or any person claiming under a post-attachment title.
Key Legal Elements
- Actual Physical Delivery: Direct eviction of debtor and his agents.
- Post-Attachment Transferees Liable: Transferees acquiring title after attachment are evicted summarily.
- Enforceable via Warrant of Possession: Executed by court bailiff with police assistance.
- One-Year Limitation: Governed by Article 134 of the Limitation Act (1 year from when sale becomes absolute).
Practical Note
Limitation for Auction Purchaser Possession: 1. Article 134 Limitation: The auction purchaser must apply for delivery of possession under Rule 95 within ONE YEAR from the date when the sale became absolute. If filed on day 366, it is barred by limitation and the purchaser is forced to file a regular title suit for possession! 2. Simultaneous Police Aid: File for police aid along with the Rule 95 application if the debtor has threatened violence.
