According to the plaintiffs, they being the co-sharers of the property in question, and there being some amenities common between the two parts of the suit property, one part in occupation of the plaintiffs and the other in occupation of the respondent No.1, the plaintiffs had the right of preemption to purchase the undivided share of the defendant No.1.
