Legal Question in Civil Litigation in India

Dear Sir,

My Father-In-Law purchased a small plot in an approved layout in Guntur in Andhra Pradesh in 1995. He passed away in 2014. However, we have noticed that in 2004, one of the member from society (who sold the plots) got an "Agreement to Sell with POA" on the plot and got the same registered on his name by impersonating some unknown person in place of my Father-In-Law and executing the same in SRO. Further, using this "Agreement to Sell with POA", he sold the property to his son in 2013. My wife is the legal Heir of this property. Kindly advise on the appropriate civil or criminal action we need to take in this regard. Many thanks in advance for your advice.

Sir, If person impersonate's your Father-In-Law, as you've said asked question amounts to be False Impersonation, Cheating, & False Deed's Of Transfere's under Criminal Justice System, further R/w., U/s.81, & U/s.82 of an Indian Registration Act 1908., Therefore you can take up a Criminal Recource's through by filing a Non-Cognizable Private Complaint at the First Class JMFC Court of your respective Jurisdiction.
