Cheated by friend, sold me plot on fake papers

Dear Experts,

Please help me

I was cheated by an old friend. She sold me a plot with fake papers. I came to know about this when I was trying to resell the plot and the buyers told me that there is no signature of the previous seller on the sale deed. I was told by my friend that the seller had done the signature at the witness’s place by mistake. Till date I thought that it was the seller’s signature, but the new dealer told me that it is the witness signature only, as the witness was his cousin and he recognizes his signature.

When I tried to contact my friend she says that the papers are OK and no cheating is done. But I got it verified from the area map and I was really cheated the plot which was been sold to me belongs to someone else. The seller has now moved to abroad. I have no place to go.

I have no proofs against my friend. My friend had sent me the copy of the plot papers through mail. This is the only evidence which I have to prove that my friend was involved in this deal. These papers were sent to her by the original seller and she forwarded them to me. I doubt the there are the actuals papers in her inbox which she did not forwared to me. Can i take help of cyber crime cell in this?

Also the new dealer & buyers also spoke to my friend face to face and she did admit in front of them that she was involved in this deal. I am trying to contact her now but she is not answering my calls.

This plot belong to an unauthorized colony.

Please advice. It was the money of my GPF from which I purchase this plot.

Regards

Mrs. Parkash

whom did you pay the money to for buying the plot and what was the mode of payment plus what about the physical posession of the plot.

The money was paid to my Friend some in cash and some through cheque. It was long time back so i have to check my old bank passbooks.

The actual Plot no was 74, but my friend gave me papers of 75. Plot no 75 belongs to someone. But i dont think that 74 has any owner. 74 belongs to the original seller (from whome i purchased). My friend forwared me the complete chain of the papers, which showed that 74 belongs to the original seller and not 75. I think that even the original sellers is not aware about this cheating. The sale deed never got signed by the actual owner, as she stays in abroad since last 6-7 years.

My friend told me that the sale deed was couriered to the original sellers and she sent it back. but she signed on the witness place by mistake. Now i get that she never actually sent them to her in abroad. I trusted her because she is my friend for the past 25 years and i could have never imagined in my dreams that she will cheat me like this. This is just trust which made me commit such a big mistake of my life. Now she says that she was not involved in this deal as she never signed anywhere.

Please help.

cheques can save you... cash cannot be proved in court... think on ways of providing evidence to court your transaction events...

She also sent me the copies of the sale deeds through her mail. That is also an evidence. The dealer with whome i m associated with now had a word with her face to face. and she admitted that she was involved in this deal. He also could be a witness here.

There are Two Part of Agreement / Sale Deed. First Part and Second Part..... than your She friend has signed the the Agreement. Whether she signed over the place of Witness or Seller Place but she was the part of Deal. You can proove by this way of cheating and supporting by payment via chaques. I don't know how you have received the Sale Deed by Mail only. Do you have registry copy or Notarised copy of sale agreement....?
