Actually, in this case it should be both. It is a civil matter to get the house back, but obviously there was also some criminal fraud involved. The victim of the fraud though is presumably the land registry rather than the house owner.
- chrisseaton 5y ago> It is a civil matter to get the house back Well that's what he cares about.

- chrisseaton 5y agoThe home owner has not been scammed. The land registry and the buyer have been scammed.
