The Partnership Deed is a vital document to go through and find the resolution therein, as prescribed therein. However on your very general query in absence of your partnership deed, served a notice on such annoyed partner and thereafter take resolution between all of you being three partners and settled account of such annoyed partner and retired him from the partnership on being preparing the Deed of retirement of such annoyed partner on settlement of his accounts with the firm.

thanks

This is a peculiar situation and such events are not foreseen while executing partnership deed.  You have remedies under partnership act and according to that, you may get your partnership firm dissolved or seek other remedies in accordance with law.

Coming to partners, I also have an ipc doubt.

A partner was drunk and stole some money from the company in cash like 20,000₹ to buy alcohol and never caught.

B partner saw this and stole money from A 50,000₹ convincing him that he ordered special whisky bottle from foreign. 

A gave police complaint and B told the police that A stole money from him and hence, he frauded A.

A said he never did such a thing and convicted B for five years in prison. 

This is plausible treatment? because B forgot to take help from the police and took justice into his own hands (vendetta) over an incident which occurred many years ago.
