JAMMU, Dec 8: The State Vigilance Organization has booked then Tehsildar Akhnoor and then Patwari Khour for allegedly misusing their official position and manipulating Revenue record of a piece of land in Khour.
A case FIR No. 35/2015, under Section 5(1) (d) read with 5(2) PC Act and Sections 468, 471, 120-B, RPC, has been registered against Tehsildar Vijay Kumar and Patwari Padam Kumar.
The duo, had hatched a criminal conspiracy with Joginder Singh and Sikandar Singh, both sons of Babu Ram of village Khour and manipulated the record of the land of complainant Baldev Singh. On the basis of a fake affidavit (Mukhtar-e-Aam) purportedly shown executed by Baldev Singh in the favour of Joginder Singh and his brother Sikandar Singh, the accused public servants changed the name of original owner in Girdawari to the beneficiaries.
