Sahnewal SHO Jagdev Singh said these colonisers had duped their buyers and tried to sell the land illegally for which they had been booked. They would be in police custody soon. He warned the public not to enter into any such agreement unless and until credentials and the background of the ones selling the land are properly verified by them.

“They might fall into the trap of such unscrupulous elements if they fail to see through,” the SHO said.
