A.To give opinion, it is necessary to scrutinize that Will as well as its witness part.It is also necessary to know whether at the time of execution of that unregistered Will whether your father's deceased sister was under the medical supervision of any doctor or not and who were looking after her at that time and when she was died. All these are relevant for giving legal opinion in this regard.
