This query is : Resolved
A Power of Attorney was fabricated by doing forged signatures in 1994. The POA did not indicate continued interest in favour of Donee. Donor expired in 2006. Using this fabricated POA a sale transaction was done in 2012 which is after death of Donor.
An Advocate has put remarks on the POA of 1994 "Explained and Identified by me" followed by his name, registration number and address.
A Notary has put a signature and date with Notary Seal. The notary seal only has the name of Notary with the words "Greater Bombay" in the middle of the seal. My observation as regards to Notary:- A)Registration Number and Government appointing the notary is absent on the seal. B)Address of Notary is also not mentioned on the document. C)The document does not bear any serial number of indicating notarising the document.
My first task is to prove the signatures are fabricated. Can I use my observations to further subtantiate my claim that the document is forged / fabricated in totality.
Hence yesterday i queried:- 1) What is the effect of absence of Registration number, Name of Government Appointing the Notary - on the seal of the Notary.
2)Serial Number as required by Form XV of Notarial Register pertaining to the document notarised not mentioned on the document.

You can inform Bar Council of the State about identification of forged signatures by Advocate, based on which it was so notarised ?

File a case for declaration/cancelllation of the document through a local lawyer.
