What the police office says it legally correct. they have no role in interfering in such civil disputes, under the law.

Yes. You can consult a local lawyer for guidance and recovery suit.

Send legal notice to the seller to refund token money.

Not returning token amount does not come under the purview of cheating, it's a civil dispute for which you may send legal notice and thereafter file recovery suit.

Yes, police have no jurisdiction in a civil dispute. You may explore the possibility of initiating a civil action.

Thanks experts. I have some whatsapp chat wherein seller had agreed to return the token if documentation is not clear, any suggestions to get that chat certified from third party for evidence? I read that submitting a certificate/affidavit on own may not be as good as from a trusted third party.
