Shaily Thapar Fraud Case

This case is related to Gogia Farm located on Church Mall Road in Vasant Kunj. The owner, Gogia, had entered into a contract with  Thapar to sell 36,000 sq ft of the farm for Rs 38 crore. Thapar paid Rs 10 crore as advance and promised to pay the remaining amount before the registry. On February 23, the builder allegedly took Monika Gogia to the sub-registrar office in Mehrauli and completed all the formalities required to register the property in her name, but Monika Gogia refused to give her consent for the registry in the presence of the sub-registrar until the remaining amount was paid and returned home. Monika Gogia again approached sub-registrar Shobha Toula and DM M Chaitanya Prasad on February 27 and requested them not to approve the registry until the full payment was made.

According to the allegations, sub-registrar Shobha Toula connived with Shaily Thapar and served a notice to Gogia, seeking a response within three days. However, the notice issued on February 29 was sent only on March 2. Monika Gogia claims that she submitted her reply on time. Yet, ignoring all facts, the entire property was registered in the name of Shaily Thapar.

Builder forcefully occupied the property

It is alleged that on March 8, builder Shaily Thapar along with about five dozen goons forcibly entered the Gogia farm and blocked their entry by illegally building a wall. The victim approached the Delhi High Court over the matter and on March 9, the court ordered the builder not to obstruct the access of the victim family and stop any construction work till the verdict.

Thapar claims that the deadline to buy the property for Rs 38 crore expired on February 10. The Thapar family allegedly issued a public notice regarding this on March 2. Therefore, she believes that it is wrong to claim that the Gogia family did not receive the balance amount.

Thapar further claimed of two registries of the land without any new contract citing the consent of both the parties.

The victim’s family finally approached revenue department officials and the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of Delhi Police against the builder. Gogia has alleged that accused are land mafia and they now want to grab the remaining property of the family. The remaining property is worth around Rs 95 crore.

Delhi High Court judge Nina Bansal Krishna on Monday ordered builder not to obstruct the access of the victim’s family. Additionally, she ordered that no third party be involved in the disputed property. Judge Bansal, who is hearing the case, said that the status quo be maintained till the decision is taken.
