JUDGMENT
JUSTICE SHRI.K.R.UDAYABHANU,PRESIDENT
The appellants are the opposite parties in CC.192/10 in the file of CDRF, Wayanad. The appellants are under orders to pay a sum of Rs.4 lakh with interest at 12% from the date of deposit and also Rs.5,000/- towards costs and compensation.
2. It is the case of the complainant that he deposited Rs.4 lakh in the scheme of the opposite parties who had assured to repay the same in double within 2 years and also that lottary tickets and magazines would be purchased and the prices obtained if any will also be deposited in the account. On maturity, when he applied the opposite parties did not repay the amount. The opposite parties have admitted the deposit. It is the case that they have spent Rs.64,000/- for purchase of lottary tickets and magazines and the scheme could not be operated on account of judicial interferences.
3. Evidence adduced consisted of the testimony of PW1and Ext.A1 series 10 in numbers.
4. It is pertinent to note that the opposite parties have not adduced any evidence. The deposit as well as the offer made to pay the amount in double on completing 2 years is not denied. The complainant cannot be faulted for the alleged judicial interferences etc.
5. We find that there is no patent illegality in the order of the Forum. There is no scope for admitting the appeal.
6. In the result, the appeal is dismissed in-limine.
Office will forward the copy of this order to the Forum.
