FORMER Prime Minister Dr. Keith Rowley has emerged victorious in a protracted 16-year legal battle over land at the Alma Estate in Tobago, with the Privy Council overturning a previous Court of Appeal decision.
The ruling by this country's highest court on Tuesday effectively restores the original High Court judgment in Dr. Rowley's favour.
The dispute originated in 2009 when Christo and Jocelyn Gift initiated legal action against Dr. Rowley and Marcelle Latour, daughter of the late landowner Frank Latour.
