In India, adult siblings have no automatic legal right to live with each other. However, your sister may have a legal claim to support if she is unable to support herself due to her mental health condition. It’s crucial to seek professional legal advice and consider options like family mediation to address the situation.

Should I file a case against them first, or focus on getting an investigation registered? I’m considering filing a criminal case under Section 420 and freezing their accounts. What would you advise?
