He deposited the money withdrawn from our joint account in his bank account and later showed he paid Rs 2 crore to the house seller,” she alleged.
Additional DCP, North Zone, Prachi Singh said that an FIR has been registered under the charges of dishonesty, punishment for cheating by impersonation, forgery for purpose of cheating, fraudulently or dishonestly using a genuine document against the husband and his mother.
