Where to file complaint for offence forged evidence?

Manoj (Querist) 12 July 2012 This query is : Resolved
Sir, the plantiff submitted forged document evidnce in CJJD court and he won the suit. It was a prime evidence for the case. Then we appealed in district court as first appeal but order is same. The order is stayed for another week as we are moving to second appeal.
Meanwhile we have discovered a forgery in a evidence now. So we are thinking to file complaint, so what is the procedure?
1) to which court CJJD or District court or HIGH Court?
2) Just complaint or petition under crpc 340?
3) Affidavit is required or not?

Forged document is Form 8 of a house signed by Gramsevak. He has done forgery in house no column.

Pls giude.

You should file complaint under section 340 Cr. PC in the same court wherein such forged document was produced under an affidavit and you also need to file an affidavit in support of your complaint.
