Ascertainment and Proof of ACL

Bhe v Magistrate
2005

Facts
- concerned a constitutional challenge to the rule of male primogeniture
- the father of applicants, Nonkuleleko and Anelisa Bhe (aged 9 and 2), had died,
and the mother brought an action to secure the deceased's property for her
daughters
- Under the African customary law rule of primogeniture as well as section 23 of
the Black Administration Act, the house became the property of the eldest male
relative of the father, in this case the grandfather.

Issue
- Black intestate estates and non-Black intestate estates were formerly governed
by different systems. Is this discriminatory?
