Two Builders Arrested in Panvel Property Fraud Case Over Alleged Forged Court Documents
Panvel Police reportedly arrested builders Avinash Dagdu Jagdale and Manoj Jaysingh Dongre following a complaint by Dr Bhagwan Jaywant Birmile, with both remanded to two days’ police custody.
Two builders have reportedly been arrested in a Panvel property fraud case involving allegedly forged documents intended to undermine a complainant’s ownership rights over disputed land.
The accused, Avinash Dagdu Jagdale, 32, and Manoj Jaysingh Dongre, 37, were arrested following a complaint filed by Dr Bhagwan Jaywant Birmile, 64, according to published reports.
The allegations concern a property development arrangement involving land acquired from farmers, where disputes among business partners reportedly escalated into litigation and criminal proceedings.
According to available police records, the alleged fraud involved a forged no-objection certificate and declaration purportedly bearing Dr Birmile’s signatures, which he maintains were fabricated.
The disputed documents were allegedly presented before a court as genuine, potentially affecting the complainant’s legal rights in a property reportedly worth several crores.
Panvel Property Fraud Case Linked to Pushpak Nagar Land
The dispute centres on Plot Number 456, situated in Sector 2 of Pushpak Nagar, Panvel, where the parties had reportedly entered into a joint development arrangement.
Dr Birmile, Avinash Dagdu Jagdale and Manoj Jaysingh Dongre allegedly participated in the development venture before disagreements emerged regarding their respective interests in the property.
Special Civil Suit Number 208/2026 remains pending before the civil court in Panvel, according to the case details cited in the available complaint records.
The complainant alleges that documents were fabricated to suggest he had relinquished his property rights, despite the continuing dispute over the land development arrangement.
Investigators are expected to examine whether the disputed signatures were forged and how the documents were prepared, circulated and allegedly introduced into judicial proceedings.
Three Real Estate Firms Named in Property Records
The available records identify J. Prime Buildcon LLP, Venkatesha Realty LLP and D. B. Prime Buildcon LLP in connection with transactions involving the disputed property.
However, the precise roles of these companies, their contractual relationships and any connection with the alleged documentation irregularities remain matters requiring further examination.
Their inclusion in property records does not establish criminal wrongdoing, and no independent finding against these entities has been established through the information currently available.

Police Register Forgery and Cheating Offences
Following a preliminary inquiry into Dr Birmile’s complaint, Panvel City Police reportedly registered the case after obtaining approval from the Deputy Commissioner of Police, Zone III.
The accused were booked under Sections 318(4), 336(3), 338, 340(2) and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, according to the available records.
These provisions concern cheating, forgery, certain categories of forged documents, using forged documents as genuine and criminal acts committed with a common intention.
The investigation is being conducted by Assistant Police Inspector Sachin Powar under the supervision of Senior Police Inspector Bala Kumbhar, according to the reported case details.
Published reports indicate that both accused were produced before a court following their arrest and were subsequently remanded to police custody for two days.
Investigation to Examine Documents and Ownership Claims
Investigators must establish who prepared the disputed documents, whether the signatures were authentic and whether the paperwork was knowingly used to influence judicial proceedings.
The criminal investigation remains distinct from the pending civil dispute, which concerns property ownership, contractual rights and the parties’ respective interests in the development project.
The allegations against Avinash Dagdu Jagdale and Manoj Jaysingh Dongre have not been proven in court, and their responses to the accusations were unavailable.
The reported arrests and custody order have not been independently verified by Sprouts News, making confirmation of the latest procedural developments important before drawing further conclusions.
Further developments will depend on documentary evidence, police findings and judicial proceedings, while the underlying property dispute will require determination through the appropriate legal process.
