Once the probate proceeding had been instituted, citations were issued. No caveat was lodged, as a result of which the proceeding became non- contentious cause. One of the attesting witnesses deposed that the Testator executed the Will in presence of the attesting witnesses and the attesting witnesses also put their signature in the Will in presence of the Testator. It was also deposed that the Testator was physically fit and mentally alert at the time of execution of the Will.

Let probate be granted to the said last Will and Testament of the deceased dated 16th July, 2018. Inventory and accounts shall be filed within six months from the date of grant of probate.
