Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in India

We are 3 brothers. Our father left a will in which he gave each son equal share of property. We have got Letter of Administration & my elder brother is named as the Executer. Now me & my younger bother both live in Hongkong with our families. As we are posted there for employment & my elder brother lived in the apartment along with his family.

Now my elder brother has sold the apartment illegally by making a forged Power of Attorney of both us brothers on his name. Not only that he has transfered all the money to America & brought himself an apartment there & is currently living in California.

Is there any law that can extradite him back to Mumbai on forgery case.

We have consulted many lawyers here in Mumbai but they are all saying that once he has left the country it is practically impossible to get him back to Mumbai. Is that true?

Please help.
