What is the evidentiary value of the statement of accused?

I run business in first floor of a building and person B runs business in ground floor. We have taken tenancy from person C. Now person C has sold his building to person B. But we have a sale agreement with person C. We filed a civil suit against person C for performance of agreement. Person C stood ex parte. Person B has filed eviction suit and a criminal case against us(myself and person C)saying that we have colluded. Now person C has given statement that we misused a signed blank stamp paper. Police filed a chargesheet under 120B,423,464,468,470,471 rw34. Can you let me know if statement made by accused would be sufficient for conviction?
