JUDGEMENT
Basudeva Panigrahi,J. -
(1.) This application has been filed for revocation of probate
granted of by virtue of the order dated 16th
February, 1998 passed in P.L.A. No. 85 of
1998, petitioner has claimed herself to be the
daughter of Late Bikramjit Roy. The respondent Nos. 2 and 3 are her sister and brother.
The petitioner as also the respondent Nos. 2
and 3 are the children of the deceased Bikramjit
Roy through his first wife, Ruth Ray.
(2.) The deceased died on 20th April,
1987. At the time of his death it is claimed
that he left behind a testamentary disposition
in favour of the respondent No. 1, Seema
Roy. The petitioner is said to have received a
telecommunication from Mrs. Gopa Roy on
10th December, 1999 that M/s. R.C. Kar.
Solicitors & Advocates firm had, by a letter
dated 6th December, 1999, informed her that
their client respondent No. 1 had obtained
extension of the probate in respect of Indian
assets, namely, premises No. 192B, 192 Cand
192D, N.S.C. Rose Road, Calcutta. Accordingly, the petitioner therefore, on being learnt
that such an extension order of probate had
been taken by the respondent No. 1, filed and
present case for revocation of the same.
(3.) Mr. Mitra, the learned senior Advocate,
appearing for the petitioner has submitted that
in this case serious irregularties and illegalities
had been committed by the respondent No. 1
who by suppression of material particulars had
taken out a probate from this Court on
16.2.1999. It has been further contended that
in the application for letter of administration
no authenticated copy of the Will was piroduced.
A further formidable point has been
raised that since the respondent No. 1 failed
in her application to cite in all her near relations,
therefore, such application ought to have
been dismissed.;
