You said that district court turned down.....

So now try to established that you have paid amount to him...and asked to your lawyer and demand reply from him why he accept that amount from you....of-coursr there was a motive for that amount....right

So try to established the fact that you have paid amount to him[show a/c statement,cheque details etc...] if you success to established the fact that you have paid him 18Lk you will able to go further....

This type of case can't be solved by online please go through good local lawyer who will help you better.
