Attorney-at-law Mr. Stephen Fraser presented the application but the judge did not issue the nisi order prayed for and adjourned the hearing to today.
The action cited Acting Commissioner Floyd Mc Donald and Police Superintendent Persaud, the Commissioner General and Guyana Revenue Authority.
Among other things, Rahaman claims Persaud, who executed the seizure, exhibited a search warrant to Surin Singh, a person in no way attached to the plaintiff company and did not leave a copy at the premises.
The applicant also said the warrant did not disclose any section of the Prevention of Gambling Act, under which it was purportedly issued.
Rahaman was seeking to prohibit the defendants by themselves, their servants and/or agents from interfering with his use and occupation of Lot 35 Main Street as an entertainment arcade with the seized 22 slot machines.
He also asked the Court to order the return of the machines.
