My father bought a property in 2014 from a woman named Mary Joseph. She had bought it from a man named Sanjeev in 1998. Sanjeev inherited this property from his father, making it ancestral land. Now, Sanjeev’s two sons are sending us legal notices saying the property was sold to Mary without their permission. They want some kind of compensation from us. They’ve been silent all this time, but now they’re making demands.
Best Answer
Based on Indian law, your father’s purchase of the property may be valid if Mary Joseph had the legal right to sell it. However, Sanjeev’s sons could argue that the sale was invalid as they were coparceners in the ancestral property and weren’t consulted. The court will decide based on whether Mary acquired valid title and if the sons’ claims are valid and timely.
