LUDHIANA: Police have filed two distinct cases of alleged property fraud against the family members of the GK Group, a prominent real estate company based in Sangowal village. The group’s chairman, Gulshan Kumar, along with three of his sons, has been named as accused in the FIRs.
The GK Group is acknowledged as a significant player in the local real estate market. According to police, investigations are ongoing in both cases; however, no arrests have occurred yet. The first case concerns land encroachment near a petrol pump, where complaints were lodged against Gulshan Kumar and his sons, Rohit Kumar and Sunny Kumar, by Tarvinder Singh, a resident of Lohara.
Filed on March 13, the complaint alleges that they plotted to construct a petrol pump adjacent to Singh’s shops and attempted to extend its tiled area onto his property. Following this complaint, the police initiated an investigation and proceeded to register a case against the accused.
The second case involves another son, Sahil Kumar, along with Harjit Singh. The complainant, Gurcharan Kaur from Gobindgarh, accuses them of fraud related to a land sale. According to allegations made on December 26, 2024, they entered into a contract to sell her a plot of land measuring 7 kanals and 10.5 marlas (4,252 square yards) in Sangowal village, only to subsequently sell it to other parties, thus defrauding her. Following their investigation, the Sadar police station lodged an FIR against Sahil Kumar and Harjit Singh for fraud and criminal conspiracy, as well as violations of the Registration Act.
The filing of these two FIRs against the chairman and his family underscores the growing legal challenges for the GK Group.
