On 14.09.2016, both the parties went for registration of the sale deed, pursuant to the agreement dated 16.05.2016. The documents were prepared by Subash Chander Verma, deed writer, which were signed by both the parties in the presence of witnesses but suddenly, sons of the defendant appeared and demanded extra amount of ₹5 lakhs then and there and only then defendant will be allowed to complete the sale deed. Plaintiff refused to fulfill this illegal demand, upon which the defendant ran away from there along with his sons. Plaintiff later on approached the defendant to complete the sale, but he refused.
