Dear sir

The sibling with the possession of the property must show as to how he came to be in possession of the property. I.e how the first sibling transferred the property to the second sibling.

Secondly we must examine and show to the court of the subsequent developement that has taken place on the property under the second sibling.

Apart from this before formulating a line of defence it is very important that the complete set of papers is verified. Only then can a line of defence be decided.
