1. The case has to filed at Cuddapah, Andhra Pradesh , you can also register a FIR against the said person for cheating and breach of trust and forgery if the documents were forged.
2.Register FIR on criminal case being filed against him he can act promptly to return the amount and settle.
file case against fraudster in cuddapah AP of cheating , criminal breach of trust under section 406, 420 of IPC
2) also file suit to recover your money with interest as land sold by seller does not belong to him
Dear Sir,
If the land owner has breached the clauses of the sale agreement, the buyer can approach the civil court and file the petition for damages caused or even the refund of the amount along with the interest under Code of Civil Procedure, 1908. This is also applicable if the land owner is using unfair means or committing unacceptable practices at the time of obliging with the sale agreement. A buyer can claim the recovery of the entire amount, paid by him. However, a civil case takes a long time as compared to other recourses and even the court fee has to be paid equivalent to the amount claimed. For a claim amount of up to Rs 2 crore, district courts can entertain the plea while for higher claims, High Courts have the pecuniary jurisdiction. This is exclusive of the lawyer's fee and court fee.
1)File a complaint at jurisdiction police station u/s 420 468 against seller.
2) File a civil suit of recovery along with interest against seller.
Dear Client,
File criminal complain, it will file where property situated. At present no court hearings but only investigation in FIR, provide copy of documents to police, same day police will record statement. Further things police can ask on phone. So, you have to take some pain for recovery of money.
Criminal complain is fastest way to recover money as accused will try to comprise.
Hi
1) You can file the cheating case(criminal) at Chittoor police station on the grounds that the cheating happened at Chittoor and there was no land in the name of the friend and land lord at chittoor.
2) However if you were to file a civil suit (specific performance for return of money or registration of land), then you will need to file the same in courts at cuddapah only as the land is in cuddapah.
3) Since you are interested in refund of money , filing a criminal complaint at chittoor is better and Chittoor police should be able to help.
4) If the value of transaction is in excess of Rs30,00,000-/- you can contact the CCS, Chittoor.
5) If it is less than Rs30,00,000-/- you can file either at I Town or II Town police station depending on where you are staying in chittoor town.
6) If local police are not supporting you , you should meet Superintendent of Police Sri. Vikrant Patil, IPS who is a very dynamic Officer
Hope this information is useful.

1. Sometimes the facts will be bitter but you cannot avoid it, thus it is advised that you lodge a criminal complaint with the Cuddapah police only since the crime took place in that city and the cause of action is also there only, the Chittoor police may not entertain your complaint.
2. Upon giving a police complaint you follow it up regularly with the police for an effective and expeditious settlement.
Hi Legal Advice Experts, A Very Warm Greetings to All.. My name is Sukumar and I bought a land in my Father's home town in Andhra Pradesh from my father's childhood friend. I got cheated by landlord through some forged documents. Now I collected all the required documents from Revenue office and also got certified by concern person that I bought land is not part of survey number(that is specified by them - They sold some ones property). We tried to register a Police complaint but it didn't workout and they asked us to come through by filing a Private Complaint. We are going to file a Private Complaint now. My concern here is pertaining to legal process in Court hierarchy. Do I need to file it local court first? If I win then opponents have chance to move to District court and then Andhra Pradesh High Court. Do I have a chance to directly file a Criminal Case in Andhra Pradesh High Court. If yes, what are the feasible options that helps to file a Criminal Case directly in Andhra Pradesh High Court - like valuation of property / Working in a different state (I work in Karnataka) / Health Concerns etc., Do I have a chance to get justice with in a stipulated short time.. Does approaching Lokadalat / Human Right Commission / any other helpful ones. Please share your valuable inputs. Thanks and Regards Sukumar

You have to file complaint against fraudster before local magistrate court
2) you cannot file it directly in HC
3) it would take years to be disposed of
4) also file suit to recover your money with interest on account of fraud played upon you
You can file a private complaint in the local civil court or criminal court depending on the nature of offence. You cannot file private complaint directly in highcourt.
Yes before the magistrate you need to file. You can either file a private complaint with magistrate or van file a writ in high court for direction to police to register FIR.
No in this case these authorities shall not help you.
Yes first you need to file the same before magistrate court.
If you have been advised to file a private criminal complaint under section 200 cr.p.c. then you may have to file the same before the judicial magistrate court only and not before district court or high court.
The case will run for years which have to be tolerated and you have no choice on that.
Approaching lok adalat or human rights commission will not be a proper option because your case will not be entertained by them directly.
In fact there is no human rights violation at all in this.
