A man has been booked in Thane for allegedly duping a real estate developer of Rs 73 lakh, police said Sunday.
The man had promised the victim of a housing complex redevelopment contract in October, 2017 but later reneged after he pocketed the money, a Naupada police station official said.
"Documents of the redevelopment contract given by the accused to the victim turned out to be forged," he said.
A cheating case has been filed but no arrests have been made so far, Assistant Inspector Hanmant Oholkar said.
