HYDERABAD: Medipally police registered a cheating case against four persons for allegedly resorting to double registration of 150 square yards plot in Narapally in Telangana.
Medipally falls under Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority.
Two days ago Buchireddy, a businessman from Narapally, lodged a complaint with Medipally police alleging that A Srinivas, a private employee, in collusion with three others, has resorted to fraudulent registration of Buchireddy's plot in the name of Srinivas.
Buchireddy told police that in 2000 he purchased a 150 square yards plot in Narapally from Yadgiri.
Buchireddy built a boundary wall around the plot.
Recently, A Srinivas and his associates met Buchireddy and informed him that Yadgiri registered the plot in Srinivas' name, Medipally inspector B Anji Reddy said.
The complainant also alleged that Srinivas - in collusion with Yadgiri and two witnesses including Srinivas' brother Narasimha - have executed the fraud.
"Narasimha, who is the brother in law of Narapally councillor, signed as a witness on the registration forms. We have registered a case under sections 420 and 406 of the IPC against four persons including Yadgiri, Srinivas and Naarasimha," the inspector said.
On Thursday, Medipally police issued a notice to the accused, to record their statements. "Based on the evidence, if required we will arrest the offenders," the inspector said.
