The officials at the offices will inform the request of your's in the news declaring the request of you. As you did and could not lodge a police complaint (now also you cannot register a police complaint) your ADVOCATE MAY ADVERTISE IN ANY OF THE LOCAL NEWS papers regarding the lost of the original document. you should submit a declaration that you are the owner of the property and no lien on that. After, two weeks of time, the registrar will check-up his office records to ascertain your status with the land/property.
On payment of required stamp duty, the registrar may issue a duplicate registration document, with your legal heir certificate, that you have no further claimants for the property.
