The accused have been identified as Tariq Ahmad Hajam, son of Mohd Ramzan Hajam; Ghulam Hassan Mir, son of Ghulam Rasool Mir; Mohd Sultan Mir alias Sulla, son of Abdul Khaliq Mir; and Abdul Razaq Mir, son of Abdul Khaliq Mir-all residents of Barthana, Qamarwari, Srinagar.
They have been booked under Sections 420 and 120-B of the Ranbir Penal Code, CBK said.
As per CBK, the case originated from a complaint alleging that the accused deceitfully obtained Rs 53 lakh from the complainant and his father on the pretext of selling land measuring 2.09 kanals at Estate Barthana, Srinagar.
Investigations revealed that despite receiving the full payment, the accused, acting in connivance, sold the same land to other parties and transferred portions of it to their own family members.
Following a detailed examination of oral and documentary evidence, the CBK said it established a deliberate criminal conspiracy to cheat the complainant and unlawfully misappropriate the amount paid.
“With the filing of the chargesheet, the case is now ready for judicial adjudication,” the CBK said.
