Lost original documents

Anna (Querist) 09 July 2015 This query is : Resolved
I got a property I had given cheque to the seller so he insisted that he keeps the mother deed and kept my orginal deed till the cheque is cleared.He returned me the papers back after the cheque was cleared.
I learned from my friends that there can be a misuse of the documents in such cases.He can even replace the original document with a duplicate one.
What can I do to prevent any misuse of my document?

If you are So much doubtful with out disturbing the seller apply For EC till date ans also apply for Copy of documents and Compare with what you have .You could also issue an News Paper advt regarding the Transaction with the help of an Advocate.

Obtain a certified copy of the documents from Registrar office and compare. Ask your lawyer for any encumbrance done during this time.
