Judicial Magistrate Yashdeep Chahal passed the order against the 89-year-old actor on a complaint filed by Delhi businessman, Sushil Kumar, who alleged that he was lured into investing in the franchise, the lawyer D D Pandey said.
The evidence on record prima facie indicates that the accused persons induced the complainant in furtherance of their common intent and the ingredients of the offence of cheating are duly disclosed, the judge said in the order passed on December 5.
The judge said there was a prima facie case of cheating and criminal conspiracy and directed the accused persons to appear before the court on February 20.
The judge noted that the documents on record pertained to Garam Dharam Dhaba and the letter of intent also had the logo of the said restaurant.
“It is fairly apparent that the transaction between the parties pertains to Garam Dharam Dhaba and was being pursued by the co-accused on behalf of accused Dharam Singh Deol,” the court noted.
