“Who Created the Disputed Court Orders at the Centre of the Jindal Family Feud? Bombay HC Orders Police and Cyber Probe”

Justice Arif S Doctor of the Bombay High Court has ordered a police and cyber cell investigation into allegations that forged or fabricated court orders were circulated during a family dispute involving members of the Jindal family.

The judge described the matter as involving “extremely serious and grave allegations,” and said that an investigation must be carried out before the court proceeds further with the case.

Jindal’s Claim:

The issue arose from an interim application filed by Shylender Jindal. He sought the recall of the court’s orders dated January 24 and February 7, 2025, claiming that those orders had been passed without giving him an opportunity to be heard.

Fake Orders Alleged:

Jindal alleged that Purvi Shah and Shah’s former advocate had prepared counterfeit versions of the court orders and sent those versions to him instead of the genuine court orders.

Appearing in person, Shah denied the allegations. Shah further claimed that it was Jindal who was responsible for fabricating the documents. Shah’s counsel told the court that Shah was willing to undergo an inquiry.

Justice Doctor observed that the key question was “how the disputed orders came into existence and at whose instance.”

Police Complaint Directed:

The court therefore directed the Registrar General to lodge a complaint with the appropriate police authorities and the cyber cell so that they could investigate how the disputed documents were created and by whom.

Report in Four Weeks:

The court also directed the investigating agencies to submit their findings and ordered: “Let a report be placed before this Court in four weeks.”

Merits Not Decided:

The judge clarified that the court had not decided the merits of either side’s allegations. The interim application will be considered again only after the investigation is completed.

Case Details: Rekha Parmanand Jindal v. Shylender Jindal & Ors.
