Hi All,
We are four siblings, 3 daughters and 1 son to my parents. My mother passed away in 2020 and after her death my father and brother had approached the bank to receive the money that's in my mother's account. The bank denied the transfer as there was no nominee and requested for the signatures of all the legal heirs in order to release the money.
Since the bank denied, my brother used my mother's sim card and downloaded Phone Pe and transferred the money little by little upto 30Lakhs.
I got to know this very recently and approached the bank to provide my deceased mother's SBI bank account statement but they denied. They asked me to hire a lawyer and send a notice through the court and only then they will provide the statement.
The police denied to lodge a NCR/PCR as this is a family matter. It didn't make sense to me though. We are unable to file a case infront the magistrate as we don't have any legal proof/statement.
How do I proceed to file a case? What IPCs will this come under?
