Legal Troubles (None)     02 December 2014

Legal ideas??

1. A businessman with an unregistered real estate firm provided an unregistered signed agreement to my parents for sale of a real estate property along with original link documents of the property. Businessman received full consideration in cash and promised to do registration at a later date, on demand.

 

2. On later dates the businessman wasn't cooperating. Finally my parents gave a legal notice to the gentleman on day (X). Businessman received notice on day (X+2).

 

3. The businessman on day(X+4) gave a public notice in a local vernacular newspaper that he lost the original link documents as well as blank signed stamp papers on day(X-65).

 

4. On day(X+7) businessman gave reply notice to my parents that he lost documents on day(X-65) and that he lodged a complaint in the police station on day(X-65) and also issued a public notice for the same and now alleging that my parents would have found and used the blank signed stamp papers that he lost along with original documents to write a sale agreement.

5. Clearly businessman issued public notice 2 days after receiving legal notice from us. Our suspicion is that the businessman (also a small time politician) may have influenced police to file a complaint after receiving notice at an earlier date (X-65). We aren't sure if there is a F.I.R. or just a noting in the police diary.

How do we detect and prove such collusion by the police???


Should there be an electronic record (Police Station in Andhra Pradesh) for such a complaint by the businessman, that we can request??? Our suspicion is he might have obtained a written received receipt from the police with an earlier date (X-65).


We were thinking of filing a civil suite, but now with his reply notice and his alibi, we are not sure if we can succeed and if there is a way to prove that his police complaint is false. Any ideas?????

Thanks in advance.

You have a very weak case since : 1) sales agreement not registered, will not hold in court. 2) consideration paid in cash - no trail / proof. You could, if you have witnesses to support you, file a case but doubt if you will succeed.
