CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE RAJEEV RANJAN PRASAD ORAL ORDER
2 14-08-2019 This is a case in which the petitioner is alleging
fraud on the part of some persons who called him up and misguided him by the policy of the insurance company by
promising to transfer an amount of Rs.10,50,000/- to his account against his policy with HDFC-LIC. It is alleged that they got the amount transferred by insisting upon the petitioner to do the same in the account of SB Insurance Brokers Pvt. Ltd.
The respondent insurance company has denied the receipt of any payment. In such circumstance, if the Ombudsman has dismissed the complaint of the petitioner, no fault may be found with the same because admittedly in terms of settled law neither ombudsman nor consumer forum can go to the issue of fraud.
This writ application against the impugned order has thus no merit. In case the petitioner is advised to avail any other remedy before an appropriate court, it will be open for him to do so and in such circumstance if any question of limitation would arise he would be entitled to get benefit of time spent by him before this Court.
