(3.) The facts of the case in nutshell are : the husband of the respondent no.2 herein executed an agreement to sell a plot (farmland) in favour of the appellant no. 1 and also handed over the vacant possession of the plot. When the husband of the respondent no.2 failed to perform his part of the contract, the appellant no.1 filed a Suit seeking specific performance of the agreement to sell. It appears, in the meantime, the H.D.F.C. Bank issued auction notification as the husband of the respondent no.2 failed to make the loan payment. Then the respondent no.2 and the H.D.F.C. Bank were also added as defendants to the Suit. After the death of the 2nd respondent "™s husband, she filed a private complaint against the appellant alleging that the appellant has forced her husband to sign on blank papers and was threatening him from 1999 to 2001.
