FIR for Cheating, Fraud, and Criminal Breach of Trust against Advocate Ravindra Kumar Yadav

Subject: FIR for Cheating, Fraud, and Criminal Breach of Trust against Advocate Ravindra Kumar Yadav (Kachahari, Varanasi) Dear Sir/Madam, I, Mahesh Mahto, am writing to lodge a formal and urgent complaint against Advocate Ravindra Kumar Yadav, working at Kachahari, Varanasi, with mobile number [deleted], who has cheated, defrauded, and misled me with criminal intent. Below is a detailed account of the events: 1. On 8th January 2025, I transferred INR 25,000/- to Advocate Ravindra Kumar Yadav via Google Pay (Transaction ID: [deleted]) for the settlement of an e-challan No. UP[deleted] issued against my vehicle UP66AC1725, related to a fine for a juvenile driver. This payment was made based on his professional advice that this would settle the entire fine. 2. On 7th January 2025, I initially met Mr. Yadav, and during our discussion: o He demanded a fee of INR 1,500/- for completing the necessary procedures, which I paid in cash. o He assured me that I would receive a receipt for all payments made. o He guaranteed that the entire process would take 15-20 days to complete. 3. On 17th January 2025, Mr. Yadav provided me with a receipt for INR 25,000/-, indicating Pustak Sankhiya 307331 as the transaction number. At this point, everything seemed legitimate. 4. On further demand, he requested an additional INR 700/- for extra processing work, which I paid via Google Pay (Transaction ID: [deleted]). 5. By 25th January 2025, I checked the e-challan status online, only to find that it was still pending. I immediately contacted Mr. Yadav, sharing a screenshot of the pending status, and he assured me that the process was being completed. This was a false assurance. 6. On 5th February 2025, the status of the e-challan still showed as pending. Despite reminding him again, he gave no satisfactory response. This was a deliberate delay tactic. 7. On 10th February 2025, I checked the online status once again, which now showed as paid. However, upon receiving the receipt from Mr. Yadav, I was shocked to see that it was for only INR 2,500/-, instead of the INR 25,000/- that I had paid him. The receipt he provided clearly indicated court payment but had no mention of the amount I had transferred. 8. On 10th February 2025, I immediately shared the receipt of INR 2,500/- with Mr. Yadav via WhatsApp and called him to confront him about the fraudulent actions. He was evasive and failed to provide any valid explanation. When I demanded the refund of INR 22,500/-, he flatly refused and continued to deny my rightful claims. This fraud is a grave offense, and I expect immediate action to be taken. I trust that your department will treat this matter with the seriousness it deserves.
