A release deed was executed by my fathers sister in my fathers favour while a case for her share in parental property was filed by her was pending in civil court she wanted to withdraw case but her son took power of attorney from her and contesting case on her behalf,she was ill , and was o death bed, but at that time without anyones knowledge she registered a release deed in her brothers favour by calling sub regisrar at her home for registration of deed by writeing an application signed and thumb impression by her, now after her death that release deed was send to my father by some of her confidential (name was not given)as per her wishes,through registered post.
now, on enquirey by court it was found that the xerx copy of the registered deed kept by the registration authorities had original signature and thumb impression the only doubt is the thumb impression which was not clear in the register of the registration authorities but the witness were also haveing its impression not clear because of excess ink ,rest of the document were all had very much correct signatures or thumb impressions , since we are the beneficiary if any doubt will be raised we will be held responsible what should we do? witness are supporting us and admit it was done correctly, what can be done kindly , suggest.....!

Hi !
If your document is duly registered then there is no need to prove as the same will be admissible in the court of law.

when the case was pending in the court, you say the release deed was registered. but has any party to the proceeding (either your father side or your aunt's side) informed the court about the development? otherwise, you will have to call the sub-registrar to the witness box and elicit to the court about the veracity of the document, which is indispensible.

The registration if done by registering authorities then it is entirely valid even though civil case was going on. You need not prove much except file the copy of such release deed before concerned court and pray for disposal of the case on the basis of such deed.
