Now you have to pay the price of your folly.

Lodge a complaint to the Police about theft of the stamp paper.

Agree with Shri Barman,
OR You must reply legal notice inf that stamnp paper is 2007, & u paid him 5 lakh in retuen of 1lakh in the year 2007.
That nothing is due now, and is Time barred.

Issue reply notice to your friend with real facts and instruct him if he misused the stamp paper criminal cases would be initiated against him. If your frnd files case you contest it. It requires good cross examination of your friend.

The case hinges on cross. As the money was all transferred via bank transfers, it is good for you.

One thing however surprises me, you took 1 lac and have already repaid 405 lacs, why?

If everything is online with receipts then there is no problem to reply the notice and deny to make payment to your friend.

There is no scope for filing any criminal case on the ground of non-payment. this is a civil matter.

hello friends , is there any one ?

RAJU O.F., (Expert) 21 April 2012
Cause to issue a reply lawyer notice, denying any liability and also informing that for any document prepared in the signed blank stamp paper you are not liable and that if any such documents are prepared by fraud, proper legal proceedings would be initiated against him under civil and criminal law.
