English translation of the principle

The addressee of Articles 13, 14 of Registration Law No. 5/1959 is the authority entrusted with registration procedures; it alone is bound, when registering instruments, by what is contained therein and the evidence recorded therein. This does not prejudice the courts' right, when hearing actions to establish ownership, to accept any evidence.
Arabic original
