From R.T.I., the informant came to know that the will was not registered and that does not contain signature of Sub Registrar-I S.B. Singh as he was already transferred on that date. It is further alleged that to usurp the property of late Horilal, the applicant instituted a case under section 34 of Revenue Code in the court of Naib Tehsildar, Bijnour where the court found the will to be forged and dismissed the case. Feeling aggrieved, the applicant along with the co-accused have threatened the informant. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that no forgery has been committed by the applicant. After the death of applicant's father, the property was mutated in the name of her mother. The dispute is between real sisters and a first information report No.53 of 2022 under section 420 I.P.C. was lodged against the informant and her son as well as the co-accused persons by none other than the mother of the informant for usurping her property by committing cheating. It is submitted that taking advantage of illiteracy of the mother of the informant, the informant who is real sister of the applicant got executed a gift deed, thereby transferring the entire property of late father of the applicant in the name of the informant. Thus, a first information report under section 420 I.P.C. was lodged by mother of the informant as well as the applicant. The dispute is between real sisters regarding ancestral property of their father. The applicant has no previous criminal history. The applicant is in jail since 29.5.2025.
