Someone cheated by selling land which was not his property
22-Mar-2023 (In Property Law)
I have purchased a land measuring 11 katha at Chakiswari mouja magrahat thana on 13th Feb 2018. The seller was having Power of attorney as they deal with all land matters. Man of Power of attorney holder who sold me the land was present when Amin demarked my land as per registered drawing. few days ago, I came to know from the village that on last friday himself again handed the land to some other person as the land was not in his ownership, the land which was handedover to me, and learnt that it was purchased by those persons on 2015. When I spoke to he told to meet him and he told that it was his fault and he can give backside of the land (not according to the registered skecth). He told me verbally that he will give my money back on Monday and he told he was sorry for the his deeds. But today also he didn't send my money back. Now my call goes no answer. I want my money back with registration charges and my harrassment for his intentional cheating.
An owner cannot sell a particular land twice to two different individuals, more specifically the owner, say Mr. X, does not remain owner after he sells his land to Mr. A. Thereafter, Mr. A becomes the owner and he can sell or alienate the land in whatever way he wants. Now if Mr. X tries to make a deed of sale in favour of Mr. B, such transaction is illegal and inoperative. Mr. A still remains the owner and should be the possessor as well. Mr. X is accused for criminal charge of cheating and criminal breach of trust under Section 420/406 of the Indian Penal Code. In such backdrop, Mr. B who has been cheated by Mr. X, should lodge such criminal case against him and put immense pressure upon him in every ways so that he returns back the amount he took for the void transaction alongwith the amount for the registration and for the mental agony incurred on him.However if you would have done the searching properly, the entry of sale transaction between Mr. X and Mr. A would be apparent. All the best.
