My husband died interstate in 2009. I have one daughter with my husband and 2 step daughter of my husband.
He had sold a big house and kept their share for them as Nominee in the bank. who is an American citizen? he built a present house as a share for my daughter and me. after the funeral. the elder stepdaughter wire transferred the money. and she also stole the sale deed of the present property which we did not expect she did not admit. she emailed refusing it so we gave a police complaint of all the missing document but the police said they have already fled the country. We made a complaint about the document only and then mutated the house in my and my daughter's name. now it is 4.5 years the lawyers say that we cannot claim the nominee money because of limitation but they can come and claim the share .without giving the share in the nominee money. my question she is not given any relinquish deed and she will not give. When I suggest to my husband for the same he said their engineers in America for 25 years they will not claim for this house and simply to harass. so at any time (because she has stolen the sale deed).
