Act), Indore.

(2.) Relevant facts in brief are that the petitioner was Director of Savita Grih Nirman Sahkari Sanstha Maryadit, Indore (for short Savita Society). Savita Society purchased agricultural land bearing survey nos. 643/1, 643/1/11, 606/3,597,612,610 and 609 admeasuring 4.605 hectares situated at Gram Pipliyahana, Indore (for brevity hereinafter called as the disputed land) from Jagriti Grih Nirmaan Sahakari Sanstha Maryadit, Indore (for short Jagriti Society). As per the complaint, following illegalities have been committed in this sale-purchase:

(3.) Further, it is alleged that the office bearers of the Savita Society malafidely withheld the information regarding purchase of land bearing survey no. 13/04/02 admeasuring 0.809 hectare situated at village Tejpur from Kasht Nivarak Grih Nirman Sahakari Sanstha Maryadit in the year 2002-03 in consideration of Rs. 46,150/- and they also did furnish this information to the auditors for next three consecutive years i.e. in 2003-04, 04-05, 05-06. When this forgery came into the light during inquiry of Kasht Nivarak Society in the year 2006-07, an entry regarding this purchase was made in the books of account showing this expenditure from the amount received from the petitioner, who was one of director at that time. Thus, the petitioner forged and fabricated the record by making false and fake entries.
