Ruling

1. This matter was filed under certificate of urgency this morning. I perused the application and the supporting/verifying affidavit and documents annexed thereto. I observed that the application is on all fours with JR No. 214/2024 which is due for further directions on 4/2/2025.

2. I therefore directed that the applicant’s Counsel be reached to appear before me virtually and Ms. Martina has appeared. She readily concedes that this matter is a duplicate of JR No. 214/2024 and that this matter was filed in error. She seeks leave of the court to withdraw it.

3. Accordingly, the application dated 22/1/2025 which is not certified as urgent is hereby marked as wholly withdrawn as it is a replica of JR No. 214/2025.

4. I make no orders as to costs.

5. This file is closed.

6. I so order.
