Sub- cheating & fraud by builder

Dear sir

I had booked a 3 BHK flat in JAMSHEDPUR (Jharkhand) in October 2008 ,planning for my retirement due in the year 2017.The builder could not deliver the flat as promised. After lot of chasing ,Finally in June 2012 Builder informed me that he is unable to deliver the flat and ready to pay me back the amount paid to him with 12 % simple interest.

I finally agreed to the payment as I was fed up chasing him.

Builder gave me 3 cheques of equal installment and the cheque encashment is also distributed over 3 months.

I deposited the first cheque on 25-06-12 and it bounced and the bank report was “exceeds the arrangement”.

Again I deposited the 2 ND cheque on 26-07-12 and it also bounced and the bank report was “exceeds the arrangement”

Again I deposited the 3 rd cheque on 16-09-12 and it also bounced.

I have tried to contact the builder and he is not responding positively and only replying “I am arranging your money”.

After lot of chase up ,builder gave only 7.5L out of 16 L on 4-11-2012 and gave me in writing that balance payment will be made positively by 15-11-12 but still

He has not paid a single paisa till date.

So I filed 3 nos of legal cases in civil court against the builder for bouncing of 03 nos of cheque in sept 12.

The builder did not appear for any hearings and finally court has issued a non bailable warrant against him in june 2013 and till date local police has not arrested the builder.

I donot know how long the legal case will continue… and how long also police will play hide and seek with the builder.

I am frustrated over the builder’s attitude and I request your kind intervention to solve my problem at the earliest.

kindly accompany the police officer at the builder premises for arresting him. further, you need to find out the assets in the names of the builder and disclose the details of the assets before the court by making an application for attachment of the properties. This way the builder would be blocked as he won't be able to sell the assets. also you need to ask the court in writing to declare him as a proclaimed offendor.

You should have filed the criminal complaint as provided under Section 138 of the Negotiable instruments Act. (Here, you have received the payment of Rs. 7,50,000=00. That means that when an offence was committed for insufficient fund by the Builder, you allowed to compound the offence. ) Perhaps, the time limit prescribed is also lapsed. Criminal complaint under Section 138 was the best available remedy and the builder would have come round in view of the provision of sentence and penalty. Under the circumstanaces. you are justified in preferring civil litigation, but it will take a long course. It seems, you are not properly guided. You should have also filed a consumer complaint. Now, file it, because the remedy provided under the Consumer Protection Act is in addition to the remedies provided elsewhere. Consumer Court would quickly dispose of the matter. However, before resorting to the remedy, seek an advice of your lawyer based on "documentary evidence".
