• Investment in land with false promises

I invested in a land in Dombivali through a person and just have a signed court paper but no affidavit. The amount invested was 7 lacs in the year 2014. We have several whatsapp communication which confirms that he has taken money. He wants to handover half constructed room in Titwala which values half the investment amount after these 12 years which I don't accept. I want to file the case in police and then send a notice and drag him to court. Please advise what does it cost and how much time does it take and what is the winning chance?
Please note that he has been giving us false information including several papers where none of them are in his name or others whose names he has been taken. It seems a cheating case to me.

Basically he cheated you with false promises though you don't have substantial evidence to prove the acts of cheating which is reported to have taken place 12 years ago.

It may not be possible to recover your money especially if was not the owner of the property.

You can lodge a criminal complaint against him on the basis of documentary evidences you may acquire from him

Alternately you can accept the offer he makes now and then plan to recover balance amount through some source.
