This is really awful on the part of a brother to do and act in this manner. Anyways since the said streedhan was replaced with another one hence I do not think the original jewelry remains to be called as streedhan for her.
Let your sister in law file a case to recover the said jewelry then you can defend that in the court of law. If brother does not stop crating nuisance then ask him too leave the house or else you can lodge a police complaint against him.
