In Mumbai, my father-in-law's will was registered during a home visit by a registrar. He is now deceased, leaving behind two sisters, but only one was named as a beneficiary. She is pursuing probate in court. After reviewing the registration video, we saw that the testator didn't speak or appear aware while signing, and was guided by the beneficiary and an acquaintance. Shockingly, the registrar didn’t question him and physically assisted in imprinting his thumb. Witnesses attested. Can we pursue criminal charges for forgery and fraud, and how can the other sister seek justice?
Sir, the other sister can challenge the will in probate court, citing lack of mental capacity and fraudulent actions. If the will was forged or manipulated, criminal charges for forgery and fraud can be filed. The involvement of the registrar can also be investigated for misconduct. Consulting a lawyer specializing in probate and property law is essential to pursue both civil and criminal actions effectively. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
