If the original Title Deeds of the seller are with you as you have said , then it seems then the Seller availed of OD facility from the Bank by executing some simple security documents which cannot have the effect of creating any charge or interest in the property. The OD amount thus can at best be the personal liability of the borrower and you can refute the banks claim and need not pay.
