As per law you need to lodge a Police complaint against the seller at location 'B' since the cause of action and location B Police is the proper authority to investigate into the case and can file a final report to the magistrate. Location 'A' police cannot do the same due to territorial limits.

1. It depends upon the offences.

2. But, I suggest you to lodge police complaint at the place where land is registered.

3. Before lodging police complaint, you may issue legal notice for the same.

4. For more info. you may discuss with me.
