sale consideration repaid

(Querist) 11 June 2014 This query is : Resolved 
Respected sirs
My friend entered into sale agreement with a buyer and received amounts via cash and DD.
Now that property got into litigation between seller's family after this sale agreement.
The buyer hesitated to register citing pendency of the suit. So it was agreed to return the sale consideration and was done by way of cash and DD.
The buyer did not get the original agreement papers but assured he will destroy them.
Prior to one day of completion of 3 years of sale date he has filed a suit for specific performance to gain by unlawfull means.
The litigation between the seller family is still pending
The DD repaid copies are with the seller and got hold of the buyer's bank statements as well clearly showing the payments received.
Is it not clear cheating and forgery

If your ' friend' does have copies of proof of repayment then he has nothing to worry.

The suit for specific performance of contract has no merit and dismissal of it is only matter of time.

Ask his lawyer to apply for preliminary issue.

Thank you barmanji. I must agree that this interactive platform has been so useful and helping for people like me.
Sir He has the DD xerox copies and witness to sale agreement (that is me) confirm the same.
When I confronted on this the buyer demanded certain amount to withdraw the case.

Do not agree before illegal demands. Defend the case on merits.
