Your wife and her mother can claim their rightful share of the property by challenging the partition deed through a legal suit, alleging it was fraudulent or unfair. They can seek a share of the property based on their legal inheritance rights as daughters and wife of the deceased, respectively.

My father passed away a few years ago. After his death, my stepmother and her friend (now a prominent leader) pressured my sister and me into signing documents that transferred 3 acres of our family land to them in August 2010. They claimed it was to settle a debt my father owed them. Then, in August 2015, my stepmother registered another 2.5 acres in her friend’s name and 2.5 acres in her daughter’s name, this time without our consent. This transfer included 60 cents of land registered under my name, while the rest belonged to my grandparents.

I saw a property a couple of times through an agent. Many other agents also contacted me for the same property. However, I noticed the owner had advertised it directly, so I reached out and bought the flat. The agent who showed me the property later found out I bought it, and started calling me constantly. He took the owner to the police station and forced him to pay half the brokerage fee. He then used the owner’s phone to call me and give the number to the police officer. The officer summoned me to the station and demanded the remaining half. I explained I bought the flat directly, but he threatened me with losing my job and even jail time. He also threatened to come to my company and arrest me in front of everyone. I was forced to pay the amount and leave the station. The agent later told me he’d have to give the officer a cut of the fee. What should I do?
