Panchkula lawyer, two others booked for fraudulent land deal
Dera Bassi, August 31 Certain persons, however, fraudulently sold nearly two and a half acres to Aman Kapoor, an advocate in Panchkula. The fraud came to light when Davinder Singh lodged a complaint in the Dera Bassi police station that someone allegedly sold his land to Aman Kapoor by preparing bogus documents. In his complaint, Davinder Singh claimed to have come to know about the deal from a property dealer in Dera Bassi. He added that as per the sale agreement, Aman Kapoor paid Rs 60 lakh to two persons named Davinder Singh and Mohan Singh. The agreement is ‘fake’ as it does not carry their signatures, Davinder claimed. The fake document has signatures of two witnesses, JS Randhawa, a resident of Sector 71, Mohali, and a person named Sidhu, a resident of Patiala, the complainant said. A case under Sections 419, 420, 465, 467, 468, 471 and 120-B of the IPC has been registered against Aman Kapoor, JS Randhawa, Sidhu and some unidentified persons involved in the crime at the Dera Bassi police station.
