2. The case of the prosecution is that the de facto complainant was working as a Forest Officer and got retired in the year 2023. While so, on 18.06.2008, the de facto complainant purchased a land measuring 1 acre at Old S.F No.2538 (New S.F.No.101/8) for a value of Rs.1 lakh from one S.K. Thangavel vide a sale deed which was registered on the file of the Sub- Registrar, Erode. The said land was situated behind the land of the de facto complainant's wife. In the above said land, the de facto complainant is running an establishment in the name and style of ‘’Karmugil Nattrupannal’’ and has obtained all the documents in his name from the Government.

Then, the said Ponnusamy, with the help of the petitioners, obtained a life certificate for the deceased Nachimuthu Gounder and Subramaniya Gounder and created a fraudulent sale deed on 02.12.2021 in the name of Selvaraj (A-4).
