Bajwa Developers Limited in connection with the cases of cheating, fraud, extortion,
misrepresentation of facts to the innocent plot/property buyers, frequent changing of plot
numbers without knowledge of parties to ‘Agreement to Sale’ and delayed registration of
properties which leads to delayed possession.

used to induce and allure innocent/prospective property buyers to purchase plots/properties
at prime and developed area of the city with false and impractical promises and they had
managed to collect Proceeds of Crime of Rs. 3.17 Crore (approx.). However, actual plots
were never delivered to customers at the sites agreed on and even the amount received by

other projects run by M/s. Bajwa Developers Limited.
