Fatehgarh Sahib, October 21 SSP Hardial Singh Mann said that Dharmender Singh, the victim, in his complaint to the police said he sold his land in village and was in search of a large piece of land so that he could start farming.

The SSP said Dharmender while searching for the land came in contact with Ram Singh, Harjinder Singh and Balwinder Singh on April 8, who told him that they would arrange a meeting with Sarvjit Singh who own an undisputed large chunk of land. The accused told him that the land measures 77 kanals and 10 marla and was priced at Rs 57 lakh per acre. Later, the accused arranged a meeting of Dharmender with one of their accomplice, Devinder Singh, and told his that the latter was the landowner. The cost of land was fixed at Rs 63 lakh and Dharmender Singh booked the land by paying Rs 1 lakh and later paid Rs 50 lakh as earnest money on April 21. Later, he paid another installment of Rs 50 lakh on May 11. However, Dharmender got suspicious and during an inquiry he came to know from the local people that the land was disputed one. When he demanded his money back the accused assured him to pay the whole amount along with interest. However, the accused later started issuing threats to him stating that they have connection with influential persons and refused to return the amount. The SSP said inquiry was entrusted to DSP Hardevender Singh who had found that accused had cheated Dharmender Singh. He said during an investigation the police also came to know that the accused had also cheated various persons in such land deals. A case has been registered in Sarhind police station under Sections 406, 420, 465, 468, 471 and 120B of the IPC. The police has launched a campaign to nab the accused.
