He then reported the case to police and a case FIR 93/2012 was registered against Madan Lal and others under section 420/506 RPC. After going through the case and hearing the prosecution and the defence counsel, the JMIC Ramban held that the prosecution has been able to prove the offence under section 420 RPC.
