AHMEDABAD: A Ghatlodia woman on Sunday filed a complaint of cheating and breach of trust against her daughter, alleging that the daughter used fraudulent means to have a house-ownership documents signed.
In her complaint filed with Sola police, Ami Dave, 56, a resident of Vaibhavlakshmipark in Ghatlodia, states that she lives with her son Maulik and her daughter-in-law. She said her house is co-owned by her, her brother Dilip, and her son Maulik. The house was bought by the three on April 20 this year.
Dave said that she was alone at her home on August 24 when her daughter Dimpi Pandya, 25, visited her. Pandya took her mother to a hospital where the latter was given some medicines. Then Dave was escorted to a government office. Pandya told her mother to sign some documents. Pandya told her mother that it was part of a government procedure. The mother was told that the signatures would enable Pandya to offer care to her. Pandya also told her mother that she would have to respond positively if some government officer asked her if she agreed with the content of the documents.
Dave followed her daughter’s advice and signed the documents. After completing the procedure, she went home. Later she sensed something suspicious, so she told her son about the sequence of events.
Her son found out that she had been taken to the sub-registrar’s office in Sola. He also learnt that Pandya had listed herself and her husband Kaushik as the co-owners of the house. The complaint was filed thereafter.
