Son 'evicts' elderly woman from house
The son of an 80-year-old woman cheated his own mother by fraudulently obtaining her signature on the papers of her house. Wife of a retired gazetted officer, who passed away in 1984, Damyanti Devi was forced to leave her house after her son and her daughter-in-law deprived her of basic amenities in her own house in Pitampura.
Damyanti, wife of Babu Ram retired as Class-I officer in 1982 who died in 1984 after remaining bed-ridden for about one-and-half years, was residing at CP-26, Maurya Enclave in Pitampura along with her son, Harinder Bhangelwal and his wife, Sujata Bhangelwal. Damyanti approached a city court to register a police complaint against his son after her complaint at Economic Offence Wing (EOW) of Delhi Police in October last year went unheeded. On the court's direction, EOW filed a case in this regard on Tuesday.
Damyanti said in her complaint that her son along with his associates forged and made a false will of her husband and illegally got the house transferred in his name. "Since then, her daughter-in-law started humiliating and ill-treating and made my life miserable. Not only that, both of them, son and daughter-in-law, took away all documents, including CGHS card, pension documents, documents of properties and identity proof." She said Harinder and Sujata did not provide her even food and medicine even after repeated requests. All this compelled her to leave the house and seek refuge with her daughter, Vandana Sharma.
It has emerged that Damyanti's husband had neither made any Will nor transferred the property to his son. Harinder, however, forged all documents and got the property transferred in his name. "I have been receiving my husband's pension. My son never helped me financially and they almost threw me out of the house after fraudulently acquiring the house. When I learnt about this, they started humiliating me," she said in her complaint.
Delhi Police have registered a case under Sections 471 (Using as genuine a forged document or electronic record), 420 (cheating) 467 (Forgery of valuable security, Will,) under Indian Penal Code against Harinder in this regard.
