Dear forum members
I started a business of growing flowers in a partnership with total of four partners including me.Let us say person A,B,C,and D. Owner of land is A and his son is B i am C and last partner is D.Agreement was made wherein A and B will invest their land and all the money and work , involved ,will be done by C and D. The profit was to share between all the four.Unfortunately D could not continue due to personnel reasons and i settled all the money he invested and was let out of the partenrship with a new deed with the same conditions.. now i am the only investor and and i invested around 30 L for growing flowers, exactly at the yeild time A and B started demanding money for their personnel use ( i used to give small amounts up to 1 lakh) but now they demanded 5 L ,i refused to pay and they started putting pressure by creating small and silly problems last year.( don t use this road, do not cut the branches , not to use toilets for workers) i said i cannot continue like this i ll take all i invested. They started threatening me that i should leave everything i put,and walk away.they even threatened not to come near the land . i could not do it, so i approached my senior wellwisher who is also a businessman to talk to them. He talked and said we will clear it out like adults to A. ( the conversations were recorded ). A broke the lock of the gate at the business premises and put his own lock for not allowing me get in. A went to police station and complained against me that i am planning to grab his land using my friend . Police enquired about the issue and concluded this can be cleared only by court not in police station . After A did so much drama P0lice took in writing that A would see in court and i should reply to him accordingly. Now B started harrassing me about the business that show all the bills and reciepts that i invested in the land. (I have all the bills and vouchers.), i replied him that come with a court order i would oblige accordingly. Now everyday he sends mail to me putting deadlines for all the business activities ( he never asked anything for last two years ). Every month for last two years i would give A list of all the expense and sales and i took acknowledgement from him.
Now the issue is i cannot continue the business because of this pressure from them putting allegations.
I am not able to take the things i put in the agricultural land.
can i sue them for the amount i invested.( agreement was for 18 years and only 3 years passed )
I asked them to settle out of court but they do not want to come for disscussion.
i do not want to simply drag the issue. i am planning to put a case .
