Scores of British homeowners across Goa face the prospect of eviction from their properties following a government investigation into their purchases.
Victims of the powerful nexus between unscrupulous property dealers and corrupt local politicians who sold them flats and well-appointed beach houses with either incomplete or forged deeds, these Britons now run the real risk of being dispossessed of their homes.
In many cases they were acquired as retirement homes, after great forethought and deliberation, with their life savings.
“These unfortunate Brits are caught in the crossfire between greedy politicians and equally rapacious property developers” said a 48-year old Indian business woman currently building a house in South Goa who, fearful of consequences, declined to be named.
