Before his death, X wrote a will. X’s property isn’t his personal property but family property. Out of his 5 children, only one is a son. The will was in the son's name, and X had mentioned that the son should take care of him in his old age. However, the son had resigned from his government job and moved abroad, living a prosperous life. The son was absent for 25 years. Now, both X and his wife are deceased. Some of X’s daughters are demanding a share of the property and have filed a case in the Munsif Court. Who does the law favor? Can the son, who didn’t take care of X, be given favorable consideration?
The validity of the will depends on the circumstances of its creation. If the son is named in the will but did not care for X in his old age, the court may still uphold the will unless there’s evidence of undue influence or fraud. However, the daughters can challenge the will based on legal grounds, such as unfair treatment. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
