Rajah Thakoor Birrm since deceased, the predecessor-in title of the appellants Nos. 1--5 (hereinafter referred to as the judgment-debtors) was the owner of a full 16-annas chare of a village tailed Patsanda. Ten of the said shares were encumbered and six were unencumbared, save that two bonds had been executed by the Rajah in favour of one Gobardhan Das and others, which purported to create a charge on a 3-annas share in the said Mahal as security for the said Gabirdhan Das for Rs. 23,965 and Rs. 532. 4.

The auction-purchasers have parted with their purchase-money which they paid into Court on the faith of the order of confirmation and certificate of sale already referred to. This money has been distributed amongst creditors of the judgment-debtor who had attached the unencumbered property in question and could have realised their judgment debts by a sale of this property in execution and it would be inequitable and contrary to justice that the judgment debtor should be restored to this property without making good to the auction purchaser the moneys which h....
