Jammu, September 3: The Jammu and Kashmir Crime Branch announced on Thursday that its Economic Offenses Wing (EOW) has filed a chargesheet against two individuals in a land fraud case.
According to a statement, the EOW presented the chargesheet before the Additional District and Sessions Judge (Anti-Corruption Court) in Udhampur against Allah Din, a resident of Battal Ballian, and the now-deceased Joginder Kumar Sahni, who was the Tehsildar of Udhampur at the time. They face allegations of fraud, forgery, and manipulation of revenue records.
The case was registered based on a written complaint from Shamas Din, a resident of Battal Tehsil in Udhampur district. The complainant alleged that Allah Din fraudulently altered the revenue records to change his father’s name and illegally claimed ownership of the complainant’s ancestral property based on this alteration.
Evidence gathered during the investigation indicated that Allah Din allegedly conspired with Joginder Kumar Sahni to change his parents’ names from Dalmeer to Baghu.
The investigation was led by Deputy Superintendent of Police Akash Kohli, who examined the relevant revenue records and other evidence. Based on the findings, the allegations were substantiated.
Following this, a chargesheet was filed in court against Allah Din and Joginder Kumar Sahni, which included a list of witnesses and seized documents.
SSP Faisal Qureshi of the Jammu Crime Branch EOW has advised vigilance against such economic fraud cases and encouraged reporting any incidents to the EOW SSP.
