If it is through process of law then she is liable to pay, otherwise she could send a request email to the employer and settle it mutually, in case of refusal the said fact should be disclosed to the present employer to gain confidence over negative reports of earlier employer.

on perusal of your question it prima facie appears that your sister will have to pay the agreed salary however it is advised that prior to any such step you should take opinion regarding the bond that is executed by your sister. Please share the appointment letter and other documents along with the detail of the bond executed. Please take an opinion on these lines before making any payment.
