JAMMU, Mar 3: Crime Branch Jammu today produced charge-sheet against accused fraudster allegedly involved in cheating the complainant and duping him of a huge amount in a land deal case.
Charge-sheet was produced against Ashok Kumar Sharma, son of Kenya Lal of Rehari Colony Jammu and others in the Court of Sub Judge, Jammu, in case FIR No.13/2017 U/S 420/RPC P/S Crime Branch Jammu.
The case was registered after a written complaint was lodged by Kuldeep Singh of Subash Nagar, Jammu in Crime Branch, alleging that the accused entered into an agreement to sell two kanals piece of land at Salalpur, Tehsil and District Jammu and took Rs 5.00 lacs as advance and the remaining payment was to be made at the time of registration of the sale deed. However, when the complainant approached the accused with the remaining amount of Rs 5.00 lacs, as agreed upon within, the accused refused to execute the sale deed and also did not return the advance payment.
It was further alleged that after repeated requests, the accused further allured the complainant and entered into another agreement for land measuring 17 marlas situated at Zaffre Chak, Marh Jammu but again he refused to execute the formal sale deed. The accused kept on inducing the complainant with more such false agreements.
After preliminary verification, Crime Branch Jammu registered the criminal case and established that the accused succeeded in obtaining a huge amount from the complainant with an inducement of selling him two kanals piece of land which didn’t exist in his name.
