You haven't mentioned either you are debtor or guarantor.In any case regaining the property recquires cumbursome procedures. Cancellation of documents, recoveying,collection of dues ctc., need to be completed if at all the property is to be returned.Venturing to get it back by shotcut means is impracticable.
