We intervened before the Constitutional Court in a writ of constitutional protection case, in which a criminal law judge ordered, as a precautionary measure, to suspend a land restitution process. The criminal case investigated the alleged procedural fraud in the land restitution process by the plaintiffs. According to the litigants (who act as defendants in the land restitution case), the restitution plaintiffs committed procedural fraud by arguing that the seeling of the land in question constitutes legal displacement.<\/p>\n
