Thank you Sir/Ma'am, for your amazing videos. Please clear my doubt as to this sentence i read in a newspaper. It reads as....

Perhaps, the ruler himself also COULD NOT HAVE HAD SEEN the future valour, achievement and foresight of his own self.

Please tell are those capitalised words grammatically correct? What the HAD is working as in this sentence? What does it mean? I am confused. I want to know how those two third forms of verb are used together in the sentence? shouldnt it have been written as Could Not Have Seen instead of Could Not Have Had Seen?
