PUNE: The Pimpri Chinchwad police are investigating a complaint by a 69-year-old wholesale trader from Bohari lane accusing five people of connivance and forging his signature to sell his 40 gunthas of land worth Rs 61.41 lakh in Khed taluka.
The man, who filed a complaint with the Alandi police on Thursday, said a resident of Ahmednagar district first produced a person looking similar to the complainant before the registrar’s office. “The man forged the complainant’s signatures and showed that he had sold the land to the suspect for Rs61.41 lakh. The fraud happened in April 2019,” said sub-inspector Bapu Jondhale of the Alandi police, who is investigating the case.
