Currently one brother who is a UK citizen is residing with parents since last 7 years, other brothers visit my parents on an average once every 5-year average from foreign. I have some evidence including videos, police report etc.
I live in USA, and I have cameras at home to monitor my parents. My father is bed ridden and mother has phycological issue. My brothers are verbally abusing servants also that I hired at home and threaten me that they will remove cameras that I have installed at home. I want to protect my parents.

Your parents should file complaint against your brothers before senior citizen tribunal and seek protection orders 

 

2) further seek orders to direct them to vacate portion of property in their possession and permanent injunction restraining them from disturbing parents possession of house 

 

3) they can also call police helpline fir assistance

Dear Client,

if your parents are living in India, then you can file domestic violence case against them or just talk to your brothers to not to abuse your parents. if they do not listen, as your are already having the evidences, then file a DV case against them.

- Your parents can lodge compliant against them before the higher official of police under the provision of Senior Citizens Act for reconcile the issues . 

- This Act is applied in all parts of India. 

- Further, they can seek their maintenance after approaching the court and also under the senior citizens Act.

If you have evidence for the physical abuse and assaults against your parents, you may give an online police complaint to the concerned police with a copy to the top police officer of the city where they live.

You can upload the videos and other documentary evidences to prove the acts of violence that they have done agaisnt your parents in your complaint given online.

If you do not want to follow the correct procedures of law that were suggested to you then you cannot get any relief by any short cut method. 

In that case you may have to come back to India to give physical protection to your parents by being with them  throughout. 

The complaint before senior citizens welfare tribunal also have to be given by them directly without your brothers knowing about it.

That also will not be possible.

Now you have to think about what measure you can take to protect your parents from the said assaults/physical abuses.
