Giving Surety in a ChitFund company

My uncle is a govt employee. He gave surety to his friends for  25 Lakhs  in a Chit fund company.

His friends are not paying to the chit fund company,the chit fund company is taking money from my uncle salary. he got few letters from the court to attend in the court belonging to this surety, but my uncle neglected it. now he is not getting any money from his salary. this is continuing since 5months.

One of the member who took surety from my uncle is having some properties like land. Can we put any case on him to take his land.

my uncle is a heavy drunker and too inocent. In future he may also give surety  to others again.

is there any legal solution to stop his surety signs.

Under law a surety is as liable as the main borrower. The creditor can choose to recover the amount from the borrower or any one or more of the sureties. Generally they recover from the person from whom it is the easiest. Probably they have chosen your uncle because it was easy to attach the salary. As your uncle did not attend the court summons, it became even easier.

A surety can claim the amount from the main borrower. Let your uncle file a suit against the borrower to attach his property and recover the amount from him.

You are saying friends. Is your uncle surety in more than one case?  Is the creditor one and the same for all?

he gave surety to many of his friends, He don't say about this surety's to his family members.

We are woring about he may give surety's to his friends again,how can we stop him legally to not give surety's to any body.

He is very addicted to drinking and his friends were taking his advantage.

It is very difficult to help a person who doesn't want to help himself.
