Dear Sir,
Let the Court decide whether it is valid Will or not and ask your brother to approach the Civil Court.

The case is prima facie against you.
However, you can challenge the will and declare it to be a good will without impediments.
You can obtain NOC from all people who would have been (directly or indirectly affected by such will)
File it in the Civil Court and declare this will to be a good will which should not be nullified on the basis of technical errors which a lay man could not have known.
Thank & Regards
