Dear Members of this Honourable Legal Profession,
My husband being an NRI had invested in a land in Begur, Bangalore which was sold through MICO Co Operative Society on the ground that he was an ex employee of MICO. The vast extent of land was compounded, gated and plotted before it was sold.
The sellers being joint family members the kartha of the family duly signed all the deeds. Individual layouts were sold directly by the sellers.
From the time the land was purchased my husband has been paying the required Panchayat taxes till 2004. Every time we visited India we made a trip to check the land and developments in the neighbourhood. When the Electronic City came up in Hosur the land value in tis neighbourhood started raising steadily.
But our happiness was short lived as the greedy sellers started to threaten the buyers who went to visit their lands. The compound wall and arch were destroyed.
Aggrieved by this we filed police complaint but as usual it was of no use.
Finally most of the buyers got together and filed civil suit before the Hon'ble Court in Bangalore in Aug 2004.
Though the Injunction Order was passed in our favour restraining the defendants from encroaching the land till today the suit is pending without any progress.
Every time we call our Advocate he assures us that the matter is d the following month an we should be ready to come down to give witness........But not once has he called us up. But repeats the same statement.....
10 1/2 years have gone by......is the Indian Legal system so bad or is it our choice of advocate that is bad.....
Kindly advice
