    Judegement

    Summary of Court Decision The Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate of Kheda convicted two accused under IPC Sections 420 (cheating) read with Section 120B (criminal conspiracy) and Sections 465/471 (forgery). The court found they conspired to create forged land documents (fake 7/12 extracts), enabling wrongful property transfer and government revenue loss. Both were sentenced to 5 years imprisonment and fines, rejecting their defense that they didn't directly benefit, as the law requires establishing only one aspect of dishonesty (wrongful loss OR wrongful gain). This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
