BRIEF FACTS

was elder nephew of the complainant Ravi Sharda and both met
at a family wedding at 13.11.2015, where allegedly Gagan Nawel

India and that his company was hiring for immigration to Canada
where he first gets work visa and thereafter permanent residence

invested money for the same purpose but the purpose for which
the money was given allegedly was not fulfilled so he filed the
complaint which later on was converted into the FIR.

application by mentioning the contents of recovery of Rs 12, 00,
000 (Twelve Lakh only) and had not completely gone through the
contents of the FIR minutely and word by word which itself
shows the false implication of the accused in the present case and
