A has given away his share by WILL to all legal Heir.

The co owner is owner of his share only.

It is better to partition properly and demarcate.

The legal heir and co owner cam buy out share of each other, rent or sell as they please.

 

Amicable settlement shall be the best option.

It shall be appropriate to show all docs to a local lawyer and proceed under expert advise of the lawyer that has examined the record and inputs.
