My brother's wife using abusive and filthy language towards my father and demanding property as she has become a Widow. Her parents also pressure my father. , but my father is scared and informs us that no one has abused, demand or ill treated him. When Myself and my sisters have intervened , brother's wife has complained against me and my sisters to police that we are torturing her mentally and picking fights with her. Police is also siding with her. But i have electronic voice recordings in mobile to prove that she is only causing the problem. I have informed this to local police station, but they are not ready to listen. Kindly help us to solve this problem legally!!

Dear Sir,
You may put multiple cases against her by yourself, your wife, your father etc. Both the properties are self acquired properties of your father in legal terminology. Your widow sister-in-law has no right over such properties during the lifetime of your father except a right for maintenance. Get dispose the said properties and see that those properties not goes to the hands of your sister-in-law unless she agrees to your terms.
