Rawalpindi
Stamp paper vendors are charging exorbitant fees besides legal fee from people who come to transfer properties in their names including houses and plots in Rawalpindi. The touts are roaming and stamp paper vendors are openly demanding extra money from the people in the Kutchary of Rawalpindi, to get prepared legal registry and to get attested other documents of their property belonging to Municipal Corporation.
Sub-Registrar Rawalpindi Khalid Goraya, when asked about this issue, said that he had banned the entry of touts and stamp paper vendors into his office and took legal action against them and would send some of them to jail. He said that whenever anyone comes to his office to make his documents legal, he first carefully checks attached documents and then attests and clears it. He said that it was his utmost effort to redress the grievances of the public while sitting in the office.
But the people standing outside the sub-registrar office said that they had to pay more money besides legal fee as the stamp paper vendors in connivance with the subordinate staff of sub-registrar office did not let their registry cleared unless they receive money.
When some stamp paper vendors, who do not want to reveal their names because of danger of shutting down of their businesses, were approached, they said that they had to pay extra money to the subordinate staff of sub-registrar office to get their legal documents cleared otherwise they reject the documents without any reason.
They appealed to the high-ups to take action against these touts and vendors who had been running their business of stamp papers for a long time and also against black sheep sitting in the sub-registrar office.
