Jammu, Dec 2: Economic Offences Wing of the Crime Branch Jammu produced charge-sheet against three siblings for their alleged involvement in hatching criminal conspiracy and defrauding the complainant of Rs 43 lakhs after alluring him to enter into a deal for sale of a 51 Marla piece of land, owned by them at Birpur.
It was produced in the Court of law in case FIR number 16/2019 U/S 420, 120-B/IPC P/S Crime Branch Jammu.
It said that after agreement to sell and taking the huge amount from the complainant, accused persons in criminal connivance by deceitful means cancelled /revoked the General Power of Attorney for ulterior motives.
The case stems its origin to a written complaint lodged by Manmohan Singh, son of Barkat Singh, resident of 94-B, Gandhi Nagar, Jammu, alleging that accused persons approached him with an offer to sell their land measuring 51 Marlas at Birpur for Rs. 51 lakhs, on the pretext that the land was coming under acquisition and in case the former pays them the consideration amount of Rs 17 lakh to each accused, he would be authorized to receive the compensation at the end of acquisition proceedings and it would be for more than the consideration amount.
Thereafter, Special Power-of-Attorney was executed by all the three accused persons in Dec 2021 and even agreement to sell was executed in favour of the complainant.
However, the accused persons later approached the Collector Land Acquisition 220/33KV-PDD Jammu, with a written communication that they have cancelled the Special Power-of-Attorney granted to the complainant and that the Collector shall now make the payment into the account of the accused persons only, thereby cheating the complainant.
