The complainants filed a complaint under Section 156(3) Cr.P.C. against the opposite parties, for taking criminal action against them. The opposite parties have created several persons, including the complainants, as they grabbed huge amounts from the buyers, without bothering to deliver possession of the plots. They have no license to promote or develop the colony, as per the advertisement. The complainants served a legal notice dated 04.01.2016 upon opposite parties No.1, 2, 3, and 4, requesting to refund the amount of ₹23,40,000/-, along with interest at the rate of 12%, and compensation was received.
