Dear Respected Sirs \ Madams ,
Last year my friends & me (4 member including me) bought a 16 cents of plot (4 cents each one) out of 3acrs of agricultural land and at the time of registration owner brought a copy of passbook only to the register office. When we asked him he said original not required it’s only 20 cents. We don’t know how he managed with registrar but it’s got registered under our names.
Now some X person sent a legal notice to all of us (including registrar, land owner and us) stating that owner has taken 8Lakhs loan by executing a mortgage ( not a registered mortagage ) under his name and submitted original passbook before 5yrs. We don’t aware this matter. Neither land owner told us nor EC which we took while registration shown.
We went several times to land owner for to resolve this , he simply saying that it’s just a 8 lakhs loan only , you guys don’t worry I will take care of it .
After some months we got a notice from the local court for hearing, as per court notice we all are went to court but the owner and the one who filed case \ his lawyer not presented in the court. And all our name were called in the court but we only presented and we have been told by honorable judge to hire a lawyer. That’s it. No another sentence said.
And it’s being 2 months no another notice came from the court or any other lawyer. We afraid that our hard earned money will vanish by our lack of knowledge.
Kindly advise what action we can take, we hope your expert answer will guide us. Thanks.
