• Legal possibility of being a sub tenant

Legal Possibility of being a sub tenant on basis of a Said (legal) agreement with the Widow Late Tenant.
Respected Sir, we won a commercial shop in the main market which was closed 10 Years Back when the Tenant Deceased. Now a person has declared that he had made an agreement with the Widow of the Deceased Tenant and the Widow is believe to be Deceased as well. Does this Kind of Said Agreement with the Knowledge of us the Owner of the Place have any legal sanity, if no what kind of action should be taken against such trespasser. Please Let me know we have little to no knowledge of any legal terms here.

Further file a police complaint of illegal trespass in your property. You can file suit in the civil court and further the police complaint in the jurisdictional police station.

1. File an Police FIR against this nefarious person, for Threatening, Intimidation, Trespass, Cheating (as applicable) and request the Police to Investigate the legality of the document on which he is claiming anything. Typically if this agreement/deed is registered then it shall have force of law ELSE no.

2. IF the Police does not take action, THEN you can file private criminal case u/s 156(3) Cr.P.C., in the local Magistrates court, seeking directions to the Police to investigate and file charge sheet, against this fraud person.

Any agreement of the third party with the wife of the deceased will not be a valid agreement.

She will be considered to be a trespasser.

Please note that the tenancy rights can not be transferred without the consent of the landlord.

File eviction suit against the person who is in illegal possession of the property.

As you said that he is a trespasser, you may initiate legal steps for evicting him.

Sub-tenancy is not allowed, hence that itself is a strong ground for evicting him.

This is my response to you:

1. Send him an eviction notice for wrongfully occupying the premises;

2. If he does not respond then, file a police complaint against the trespasser;

3. You can also approach civil court and seek civil remedy;

4. File a suit along with a injunction application;

5. Consult a local lawyer and take steps.
