(3.)

The proposed respondent-complainant claimed that he pledged gold articles and raised a sum of Rs.4,15,000/- and adjusted the balance of Rs.85,000/- by other means and gave the sum total of Rs.5,00,000/- on 06.07.2017 to the petitioners/A.1 and A.2. His complaint was that the promised return was paid only for three months and thereafter, the petitioners/A.1 and A.2 started dodging him and did not make the payment. He further claimed that his attempt to get the matter settled through the intervention of elders and by way of legal notices failed and he therefore requested the police to take appropriate legal action against the petitioners/A.1 and A.2 who had cheated him with a dishonest intention.
