A 40-year-old man has been booked by the Bund Garden Police for allegedly submitting fake non-agricultural (NA) land order documents to register a property. According to the complaint filed by Vidya Amol Sangale, 34, sub-registrar of Haveli, he furnished bogus documents signed in the name of sub-divisional officer Snehal Barge, thereby misleading and cheating the government.
The incident occurred on June 13, 2022, but the FIR was lodged on November 13 under Sections 420, 465, 468, and 471 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) Section 82.
