Why not? You are free to file any number of criminal cases against the builder, provided you are also ready to face retalliatory moves of the builder and have time and money to spend for all such wasteful efforts.
Why do you feel that the other party would simply keep silent on your filing criminal case against him?
You should have been satisfied when you have recovered your dues along with interest and cost, if any.
