Hi,
My father-in-law helped me in buying properties at his place. I didn't take the original documents from him as he said he needs them to get passbook etc for the agriculture land. My wife and I separated 2 years back and now he is blackmailing me that he financed the properties and they belongs to him even though they were registered on my mother's name. He is supporting his argument based on the possession of the original documents.
I am thinking to give police complaint saying that we lost the documents and get the duplicates from the registrar office and sell them. Can someone please suggest whether this is the best way or is there any other option available?
If I want to sell the property, can he create any issues by having the original docs with him. If he goes to court and says he financed the properties, will he get the rights on the property even though it was registered on others name.
I really appreciate your suggestions.
Thanks!!
