Raipur. The Abhanpur police have registered a case of 400 BC against a woman who had taken Rs 8 lakh as earnest money by claiming another’s land as her own. According to the police, on August 22, Sunita Chandrakar made a deal to sell her land to Pritpal Chawla, a resident of Mahasamund Ward-11. And got the sale deed made in Tehsil office and gave it to Chawla.
In return, Sunita also took an earnest money of Rs 8 lakh from Chawla. When Pritpal got the land records checked at the patwari, tehsil office, the land was found to be someone else’s and not Sunita’s. On this, Chawla canceled the deal and asked for the money back, while Sunita kept on making rounds. Finally, Pritpal filed a report under Section 420 against Sunita at Abhanpur police station last evening on this fraud.
