Hi;
My ex-wife prepared / executed rent deed on fake stamp paper with my tenant and its uncertified copy is produced in Rent Tribunal – who has refused tenancy with me. She has no authority or ownership of the property and is divorced before executing this document for the tenure of 2 years. It has also not been registered with Rent Tribunal or under Registration Act. This rent deed alongwith rent receipts written on plan paper chits are produced by the tenant in ejectment petition and Rent Controller has admitted these photocopies as proof of tenancy with other person i.e. my ex-wife.
Application under s 476 Crpc moved with Rent Controller has been dismissed with direction to go to proper forum.
Police did not entertain my application as civil litigation is pending between me and my ex-wife,
What action is available with me.

Salam. My cousin deceived me and I filed 2 FIR against him and he is charged against 420 PPC. If he get punishment, then will it be double? as he gave me 2 cheques through his partner and those cheques were bounced.. The second FIR is the outcome of first FIR. His partner is charged against 489 F as cheques of his signatures though the main criminal is my cousin…kindly share that either he will punish for seven years or 14 years and what is the amount of fine as I heard that there is fine too.. Regards
Admin says

In your case he can only be punished once and that is maximum seven year
one more thing which you should be clear in mind is that no court will award full punishment of seven year and it will be way less depends upon the case proceedings
AYESHA KHAN says
OK Thanks..if punishment is for 7 years then it can decreases to 3 years or less than it??? at least he will be punished and his partner too.. i read in newspaper that an accused is punished for 3 years in 489-F and punishment for that offence is also 3 years. Regards

AOA..i need a advice on something. We are 2 brothers and a sister. after my father’s sad demise we had one property that was worth 30 lacs in 2006. as my elder brother lived in foriegn country we all three decided to sold that property when our mother got ill..due to his presence issue we all three decided to take loan for our mother liver transplant. we made a power of attorney which was forged.as father passed away few years ago.before the loan could process our mother passed away.then we decided to sell that house as it is so that we may distribute the property share legally.as our brother couldnt come back to pakistan very often we proceeded as decided and sold that house when he was present in Pakistan.and distributed the money.now in 2017 our elder brother due to some family grievances lodged an FIR against me n sister that we did forgery and he was not aware of the sale of the house from 2007. we have some reciepts with his signatures and thumbs of recieving his share of the property. plus he had his signs n thumbs in the LDA as well. but police is also threatening us for an FIR as he is pressurizing them thru overseas pakistani comission. on documants yes forgery was done but that was with all of our consent. problem is on that specific power of attorney only me n my sister signature is present. are we also treated on this 420 penal code and get the punishment or there is a way out?

A false suit was filed in the Civil Court that claimed I was paid 8 Crore Ruppees in an ‘Agreement to Sell’ my land for a total sum of 8 crore 20 lakh rupees.. The suit called for Specific Performance of the Agreement offering 20 Lakh rupees in order to sign off my land. The documents presented to the Court are confirmed forged of my signatures and thumb impression by the Punjab Forensic Science Agency reported to the Anti-Corruption Establishment (ACE). The Claimant withdrew his case after one year of litigation without any reservation what so ever. Due to corruption at the ACE the criminal has absconded trial and imprisonment. There are several other influential persons who colluded in the fraud. These people have not been prosecuted while I have bourne huge legal costs and travel expenses as I live abroad. How can I claim for my costs and expenses, and get the culprits apprehended?

I am an overseas Pakistani and would like to know if I can register FIR against the person who has committed Documents forgery in all his Pakistani documents for the sake of immigration. This person is not currently living in Pakistan and has moved to Canada two years ago but not yet a Canadian citizen. I have been advised by some lawyers in Pakistan that both parties have to be present in Pakistan in order to file FIR complaint. Is this true?
Secondly, what are the charges that can be pressed against the person who has committed forgery on Pakistani official documents ( i.e Passport, birth certificate, marriage certificate etc._).

Salam,
I need help and advice.
One of the major banks in Pakistan has forged my signature on some investment documents & that has involved me in cases of mis-selling & that is costing me in money. Major insurance company is also involved in this case of mis-selling, whose product was sold to me & bank (may be insurance company is also involved because they accepted documents with fake signatures) has forged my signature to hide the actual terms of the sale and to date bank has done the same for three times at 3 different times. I have just found out about the forgery of signatures and mis-selling at the payment schedule of second premium payment.
I have contacted insurance company at this point & have informed them of the forgery & mis-selling and have asked for the refund of initial premium paid, Insurance Company was helpful at initial stage but now is not taking my calls, their email server is rejecting my emails and insurance company is texting me to make the second premium payment.
Can you help me please and tell me how I should deal with it, to my understanding this is criminal case with PPC 420 and also case of mis-selling (and mis-selling is also a crime now days)? It is affecting my life, my health & my sleep.
Faithfully,
RM.
Admin says
@RM

Could you please tell why it took you/your website/your forum six weeks to reply my message/simply query?
ALSO, could you please tell me why I have to lodge a police complaint?
AND what steps I should take after filing police report?
ALSO, I have filed complaints with both bank & insurance company, insurance company is somewhat understanding the agreed with my claim but insurance company is telling me to get the money from the bank & bank is somewhat denying the case.
In my opinion insurance company is as much involved because they have under writed the policies and accepted the document with my forged signature.
I also want to get compensation from bank & insurance company for forging my signature, fraud of mis-selling, pain, suffering & trauma caused by the fraud, how much compensation can I get in Pakistan?
I also want the employees of bank & insurance company convicted, how can I do that?
What kind of lawyer can help me file my case in which court?
Admin says
@RM
First we receive hundreds of queries on daily basis so it is not possible to reply all in time but we are trying our best to facilitate the ordinary people.
When offence made out police complaint is the only way.
You dont need to take any step after you lodge police complaint because after that police investigation begin.
You need to engage some good lawyer who deals with Criminal Cases for this purpose
hope you got your answers in time

A person has fradulantly prepared a marriage certificate and claims that Girl named A is her wife. He then lodged an FIR against Faimily members of girl for denying him the possession of his so called Wife.
Although, girl strongly rejects the status of marriage certificate. Forensic also proves that some thumb impression does not match and other are unclear. One of the witnesses also confess that he was unaware of any such marriage instead he was made to sign the papers fradulantly.
Above proves forgery and fradulantly claiming marriage contract….Now what’s the punishment.?

Muhammad Rafique says
“I am a citizen of Pakistan and a senior officer in a Fed Govt Dept. The factual matrix in the case at hand goes as Mr. A, a long-established and well-known real-estate dealer, on a wrong statement and with intention to cheat from the very beginning, induced me to deliver him (i) a payment order (# xxxxxxx dated 11-Feb-14) worth Rs.1,500,000/- and (ii) 33 membership forms of a housing society purchased at market price alongwith (iii) cash Rs.70,000/- on the promise to get me in lieu thereof 4M commercial plot + 5M residential plot in that Housing Society. As regards mode of the delivery, one Mr. B, in the presence of one Mr. C received it from me on 11-Feb-14 and carried it to MR. A , as advised by him. Next day, MR.A telephonically confirmed me not only receipt of (i, ii, iii) aforementioned but also booking of the deal plots through an authorized dealer of M/s. Citi Housing, Mr. D. Yet, to this effect, Mr. A procrastinated release of any acknowledgement as a proper security for a long period of time. Finally, I managed to obtain from MR.A, through WhatsApp dated 20-Feb-17, copy of a document dated 16-Feb-14, which appears to have been issued by Mr. D on his letter-head bearing his seal and signature and purporting to be a valuable security. But, when examined, it shows a fraud that vividly floats thereon. For instance, the Issuer thereof, Mr. D, knowing not to be then an authorized dealer of that Housing Society to book the deal property and yet acting as a fictitious person, did so fraudulently. The document further unfolds the manner of fraud such as booking of the deal in the name of MR. A instead of petitioner’s, only payment order for Rs.1,500,000/- as received (by Mr. A) as ‘biana/token’, 33 forms as balance (misappropriated by MR.A) and no mention as to utilization of Rs.70,000/- fraudulently and dishonestly; to say, in a manner the robbers distribute the loot among themselves. Shocked by it, I rushed to the office of that housing society in whose favour the proceeds of petitioner’s payment order, in question, had been cleared. The dealing officials told that Mr. D had used the PO in settlement of his personal account with them and that no booking of the deal thereagainst existed in my name in their record. Therefore, in view of conspectus of the foregoing facts, there seems a clear manipulation and clever contrivance to avail of my money totaling Rs.7,180,000/- (=1,500,000+33*170,000+70,000), which is tantamount to commission of criminal offences predominantly.”
Kindly suggest Sections of CPC and Cr. PC. that may be invoked in the above stated case..

One of my friend who was also my business partner kept my cheq which was issued to a housing society which is clearly mentioned on the back side of cheq.He filled his name by himself and the date was on cheq was 01-04-2018 but he tempered the date and changed the year 2019 instead 2018 by Tempering and presented in bank in July 2019.His close relatives like brother and father are in police so he took advantage and lodged FIR against me.
I am on pre arrest bail and police sent cheq for forensic but day before yesterday I saw the cover letter in which they changed the whole statement which I provided them like they haven’t mentioned to check 2019 or they also written by themselves that name been tempered too but I said he filled his name by himself and tempered the date.
Suggest me either I should wait for forensic report or file petition against cover letter.
