Gurgaon Police Nab Two in Residential Plot Encroachment Case
In a significant development in Gurgaon, the local police have apprehended two individuals for their alleged involvement in forging documents to illegally occupy a residential plot located in Sector 109. This case highlights the ongoing challenges of property fraud in rapidly developing urban areas.
Discovery of the Encroachment
The illegal occupation came to light when the legitimate owner of the land, who had purchased the property back in 2002, decided to visit the site on February 3. Upon arrival, the owner was shocked to find two earth mover machines parked inside the plot and a newly installed gate, indicating unauthorized use and occupation.
Police Action and Arrests
Following the discovery, the owner promptly filed a formal complaint with the Gurgaon police. The authorities launched an investigation, which led to the arrest of two suspects. The arrested individuals have been identified as Jitendra, aged 38, who is currently unemployed, and Anoop, aged 42, who is involved in soil dumping activities.
Background and Motive
A preliminary probe by the police revealed that Jitendra and Anoop first became acquainted at a wedding. Over time, they learned that the owner had not visited the property for an extended period. Seizing this opportunity, they allegedly hatched a plan to encroach upon the plot by forging documents to support their illegal claim.
This case underscores the importance of regular property checks and vigilance against fraudulent activities in real estate. The Gurgaon police are continuing their investigation to ensure that all aspects of this encroachment are thoroughly examined and that justice is served.
