Help with possible extortion case

19-Aug-2024 (In Criminal Law)

Hi, I have an elderly couple staying with me in a community. The builder runs dining for the seniors community and the MD stopped my elderly couple from dining there abruptly. There are no other close dining options and this is bad. I tried to file a report with police about this because they were telling this couple that they could only get their dining back if they become MD's direct tenants. This sounds like it is against the law. I need to find out my options, please email

I am Advocate Arjun S from Rajendra Law Office LLP in Chennai Analysis: The situation you described is concerning, and it's important to understand your options. While I cannot provide specific legal advice without more information, I can offer some general guidance based on the details provided: 1. Potential Legal Issues: Discrimination: If the MD's refusal to allow your elderly couple to continue dining is based on their status as non-direct tenants, it could potentially constitute discrimination. Discrimination based on age, disability, or other protected characteristics is generally prohibited by law. Unfair Trade Practices: If the MD's actions are intended to coerce the elderly couple into becoming direct tenants, it could be considered an unfair trade practice. 2. Options to Consider: Escalate with the Builder: Contact the builder's management and express your concerns about the MD's actions. Provide specific details about the situation and request a resolution. Mediation: Consider mediation as a neutral process to resolve the dispute between the parties. A mediator can help facilitate communication and find a mutually agreeable solution. Legal Action: If the other options prove unsuccessful, you may need to explore legal action. Consult with a lawyer who specializes in consumer protection or discrimination law to discuss your specific situation and potential legal remedies. 3. Gather Evidence: Documentation: Collect any relevant documentation, such as correspondence with the builder or MD, witness statements, or any written communications regarding the dining restrictions. Recordings: If possible, discreetly record any conversations with the MD or builder related to the dining issue. This can provide valuable evidence. 4. Consult with an Attorney: Personalized Advice: Given the complexities of the situation, it is highly recommended to consult with one of the expert attorneys in Rajendra Law Office LLP who can provide tailored advice based on your specific circumstances and local laws. They can help you assess your options and determine the best course of action.
