Title: The legal battle over the estate of Martin Kasende Kas Kas rages in the family
Introduction :
The Kasende Kasende family, residing in Kinshasa, is currently at the heart of a legal battle concerning the sale of their plots in Kananga, in Kasai Central. In a recent press release, certain members of the family wanted to inform public opinion that any sale of these goods must be authorized by them, and that they have not delegated anyone to represent them. In the background of this affair is a conflict over the estate of the late Martin Kasende Kas Kas, which has divided the family for several years. In this article, we will explore the different aspects of this complex situation and the issues that arise from it.
The conflict over succession:
Following the death of Martin Kasende Kas Kas in 2016, the estate was opened in 2018, thus launching the start of a long legal battle. Family lawyers have appointed Célimène Kasende as liquidator of the assets, but other family members contest this decision. The situation became more complex with the appearance of suitors posing as the legitimate wife of the deceased. This situation led to tensions within the family and legal disputes.
The official warnings:
In their press release, members of the Kasende Kasende family residing in Kinshasa warn against any involvement in this affair without proof. They emphasize that the judgments presented by the person claiming to be liquidator are subject to appeal before the Kasai Central Court of Appeal. They also point out that they are the only ones authorized to authorize the sale of plots and warn any recalcitrants of the consequences they could incur.
The importance of permission from family members:
This case highlights the importance of the authorization of heirs in property sale procedures. In the context of an inheritance, it is essential to respect the rights of legitimate heirs and to guarantee their consent for any transaction. It is therefore essential to ensure the authenticity of the documents and legal representatives involved in these sales to avoid any subsequent disputes.
Conclusion :
The legal battle over the estate of Martin Kasende Kas Kas continues to divide the Kasende Kasende family. The various members of the family residing in Kinshasa wished to recall their authority in the sale of the plots in Kananga and warned that they had not delegated anyone to represent them in this matter. This situation highlights the importance of respecting legal procedures and the authorization of heirs in real estate transactions. Pending the decision of the Kasai Central Court of Appeal, this case remains pending, leaving uncertainty over the future of the Kasende Kasende family’s assets.
