The complainant alleged that Rahul approached her at her work place and induced her to purchase the property in question. Through accused Rahul, the complainant was introduced to co-accused Vipin Kumar. It is alleged the co-accused Vipin in connivance with the present applicant and Rahul, forged the title documents of a plot situated at C-Block, Rama Vihar, Mohammadpur Majri, Delhi, falsely projecting himself as the owner, and, thereafter, sold the said property to the complainant for a total consideration of Rs.14,50,000/-. 6. The Court finds that the main accused namely Vipin, who has shown to be the owner of the property, has expired. Against Rahul as well as the present applicant, the charge sheet has already been filed; the matter is fixed for framing of charges; the custodial interrogation of the applicant is no more required and he has already suffered about 5 months incarceration. 7. Bearing in mind all the aforesaid aspects, the Court deems it This is a digitally signed order.
