A businessman has taken legal action against the Registrar of Persons and a woman, seeking the removal of his name from a child's birth certificate.
In a petition filed at the High Court, the man claims he is being unfairly compelled to provide for a child he did not father, simply because his name appears on the birth certificate, allegedly without his consent.
The man admitted to having been in a relationship with the woman and that they had a child together, born on December 12, 2015.
But he said that the current dispute concerns a different child, the woman's firstborn, born in 2007, before their relationship began.
