Either rely upon what tenant say or proceed as per law, if you want them to get the property vacated.
20% or 80% stake in the property is different issue to getting the demised property vacated and arrears of rent recovered.
Consult and engage a local prudent lawyer for better appreciation of facts / documents, professional advise and necessary proceeding.

These issues are beyond the scope of this platform. We can only provide the road map for action. Further action are at your discretion in consultation with a local advocate.

Finding a proper and trustworthy advocate is your look out, no suggestions can be made on that account from this platform.
However since you are entitled to a share in the property, you can issue a legal notice to thew tenant to vacate the premises as you require the same for your own use.
You can mention in your legal notice that you are one of the co-sharer hence you have rights to issue them this eviction notice.
In the meantime you may even plan to file a partition suit to get the proeprty partitioned by metes and bounds and to allot your legitimate share in the property.
