Dear Sir,
1 year ago my original documents of my house had gone missing. My Brother used to stay with me during the same time, but because of his rowdy habits and ways , we parted ways and he started illegally occupying the ground floor of my house.We had filed a police complaint when the documents were lost but the police closed the case saying that they could not trace the documents, recently i came to know that My brother has all the documents which we perceived as stolen/lost.
He is a very dangerous man with all political and police connection.
Is there any way i can get my documents back from him just based on the doubt that he has got the documents with him.I really cant p[rove that he has got the documents, but yes one of my relatives had confirmed the same as he has seen it in his possession and also my brother confirmed the same.
Please let me know the way i can get my documents back legally.
Thanks
John

Inform Police, remind your complain and Name of Person who confirm seen it. Let the Police Interrogate both of them
RAJU O.F.,

Make a publication in paper having vide circulation in the locality, possibly through an advocate, stating that the title documents pertaining to the said property were stolen and that after filing police complaint they are not traced out and hence making notice of public that any fradulent use of those documents would be illegal and invalid and you would not be responsible for any transfer/assignment or mortgage of the said property. Also request the public, to return the said documents if any body is holding those documents. Then you apply and obtain certified copy of all such documents from the concerned Registry. Also obtain latest EC for last 13 years to ascertain creation of any mortgage or alienation.

Thanks, i have got the duplicate certified copies and also i had published a notice in Times of India and Indian Express about the documents being lost.
Shroff Sir,
he has paid large amount of money to the circle inspector to shut the case. so i doubt if the police will really do something to him rather they will start harassing me.

dont worry, let him pay anything to the police, you simply need to inform the matter to the Registrar's office.
in case he tries to deal with the property in any manner, the Registrar's office will automatically block his illegal acts.
if the necessary information is available in such offices then he wont be able to raise loan against the properties.
