Lawyer forges client signatures and files wrong cases


14-Jun-2023 (In Criminal Law)
I had visited a lawyer A to file a partition suit he instead filed injunction suit with my forged signatures. He also got his friend B file another injunction suit with my Brother's forged signatures when the first case did not help get him injunction. My brother & I filed 340 CRPC applications in both cases and filed a complaint with Bar Council. In response lawyer B accepts his signature to be in the vakalath but denies all other signature and has shifted all misdeeds to another person X who was actually assistant of the lawyer A but B states that this person X is a freelancer and that we hired X to play mischief. nnMy questions:n1. Now that B has accepted that he has signed vakalath, is there any law, section under which he can be held liable? If Yes any Judgements?n2. Since B is trying to save A from all the misdeeds, does he become a co conspirator?n3. If I manage to show a connection between A & X then can B be tried for Perjury?nnThanks.

Dear Sir,
Disciplinary action can be initiated against such lawyer by keeping him under suspension and ultimately his Sanaat that is right to practice may be cancelled for ever after trial. Parallel to it you may lodge complaint with Police against all of them.
