There cannot be trespass by co-sharer. Every joint-holders have right over each and every inch of joint land until it is partitioned in metes and bounds. Criminal offence depends upon factual position but legally none have encroached any land as every share holder have free hand.

It would depend on the facts of the case, however, this is a civil dispute and better settled out of court.

Tresspass cannot be considered on the part of co-sharer 'C'. Tresspass cannot also be considered on the part of 'S' & 'T' as they entered the premises only along with and consent of 'C', the co-sharer.

The only thing you need to prove is the fakeness of the registered sale deed brought by 'C' and his accomplices 'S' and 'T' to prove the rightness of the claim of 'A' & 'B'
