if the property of your father in law is self acquired and he voluntarily given it your husband she can not claim.
The only thing you have to verify is if the property is self acquired property of your father in law. If so, your sister in law cannot make any claim in the property.
On the other hand if the property came from the ancestors of your husband (like his grandfather etc.) then your father in law could not have given the entire property to his son (your husband). In such a case, your sister in law will have the right in the property.
