1) One of the attesting witness has already died.
2) 2nd witness(a relative) is alive age 79 Years and also in the influence of defendent(my uncle).
3) I have request him many times to give an affidavit or his statement in the court in favour of Will but he denied,We are afraid weather he will give his statement in favour of Will or not.
4) Our advocate advised us to wait for some more time.
5) Our advocate also told us now defendent (my uncle can neither challange the Will nor make any claim on the property).
6) If 2nd attesting witness will also die how can we prove the Will.
