Academic query. You are owner of what? If owner of a firm, before putting up your question, you must have the knowledge about the term "capital" and "capital account".
So, better discuss the real problem, if there is any.

I wonder, if it is not your hypothetical query. If not, how would you like to justify by clarifying the following points:
1) How could he draw the amount without your consent or knowledge, being another partner of the firm?
2) How the huge amount to buy a property was withdrawn without the signature of both the partners (you and your partner) from the joint account of the firm?
3) Under what ledger head of account he has shown the withdrawn amount?
