5:50Now PlayingMembers of a self-styled African tribe living in a Scottish forest have been evicted, Sky News has been told.
The group, who have named themselves the Kingdom of Kubala, have been living in woods in Jedburgh, near the border of England, since May.
After they were served with an eviction notice in August as they were on private land, the trio moved their campsite over a fence to a neighbouring plot of land owned by the council.
At Selkirk Sheriff Court on Wednesday, Sheriff Peter Paterson ruled that the trio would not be able to return to the original plot of land they were evicted from.
The group is made up of Kofi Offeh, 36, who calls himself King Atehene, his wife Jean Gasho, 43, who calls herself Queen Nandi, and "handmaiden" Kaura Taylor, 21, who goes by the name of Asnat.
