yes, a proof has to be there with regard to ownership of antique pieces. one also has to show the value of these antique piece in a depreciating or appreciating manner in one's own income tax return. in case one daughter in law cannot produce it, it may be shown that these pieces belonged to mother in law. some proof of ownership has to be given in order to sustain the case.
No. All you need to show is the existence of such antique pieces at the premises. Acquisition of antique pieces was an application of income not an income to be reflected. The other side is asking these question to repudiate their liability. If you have pictures showing the antiques in the premises that would suffice. But what is their case theory on issuance of cheque?
If you have writing of amicable settlement stating about antique articles, purchase of articles of complainant by accused etc. then produce the same.
In case of word-against-word case, benefit would go the accused.
You may refuse to produce the bills or the income tax details; these may not be necessary,.
At the time when you register complaint before police about theft of antique. Then police cannot close the file without any appropriate reason and there you and accused daughter in law should have mentioned something about amicable settlement amount and cheque detail. That is sufficient to create liability of cheque and no other proof is required. In case judge does not allow that proof then you have to produce any record to prove you other sister liablity towards you.
