In a high-profile legal battle, Fatima Fouzia, the granddaughter of Mir Osman Ali Khan Bahadur, the last Nizam of Hyderabad, has filed a criminal case against three individuals for allegedly forging documents to illegally seize a valuable parcel of land worth Rs 121 crore in Ooty, Tamil Nadu.
The case, lodged by Fatima Fouzia, alleges that Milad Ali Khan, Sajjad Ali Khan, and Mir Meraj Ali Khan were involved in a conspiracy to fraudulently claim ownership of the land. According to the complainant, the accused fabricated a General Power of Attorney (GPA), purportedly signed by over 150 people, none of whom were actual signatories.
Initially, the police were hesitant to take up the complaint, forcing Fouzia to seek legal recourse through the courts. Upon her appeal, the court directed the police to register the case. Consequently, the Central Crime Station (CCS) filed a First Information Report (FIR) under various sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), including Section 318 (deceiving), Section 319 (cheating), Section 335 (creating a false document), and Section 61 (criminal conspiracy).

The land in question, located in Ooty, is said to be part of the inheritance rights of Fatima Fouzia, with her stake valued at more than Rs 121 crore. The complainant argues that the accused secured a fraudulent succession order using the forged GPA, thereby attempting to transfer the ownership of the land under false pretenses.
Fouzia’s legal team contends that the accused orchestrated the conspiracy with the intent of deceiving authorities and wrongfully obtaining the property, which rightfully belongs to her family. “The fraudulent creation of documents, including the GPA signed by fictitious individuals, is a clear violation of legal norms, and we are confident that justice will prevail,” a spokesperson for Fouzia stated.
The case highlights the growing issue of property fraud involving high-value estates, particularly those tied to royal families or historical figures. The legal battle could have significant ramifications for the preservation of properties linked to the Nizam’s legacy.
The CCS has launched an investigation into the matter, and further details about the accused and the fraudulent scheme are expected to emerge in the coming days. The court will oversee the progress of the investigation, ensuring that due process is followed in this high-stakes case.
The land dispute has sparked discussions among legal experts and historians, as the Nizam’s legacy continues to face challenges due to disputed inheritances and claims over vast properties spread across India.
For now, all eyes are on the police investigation and subsequent court proceedings, as Fatima Fouzia seeks justice for what she claims is a blatant attempt to rob her of her rightful share of the family estate.
