However, in this case, the squatters in question do not fulfil the requirement of 12 years of uninterrupted occupation in order to secure prescriptive ownership of the land.

Squatting is thieving other people land. What a stupid law, Prescriptive Ownership. So if I live in NA but did not use a piece of land for over 12 years, it then give losers the right to my property.
