The police discovered an unresponsive Parveen after breaking open her door. Worried neighbours had alerted them after she didn’t pick up milk and newspapers from the doorstep for three days.
Initially, it was thought she had left no document declaring heirs. But months later, Muradkhan, who lives in Junagadh, came forward with a will that he said was drafted in 2002 and that gave him 20 per cent of the estate. By then, the Administrator General and Official Trustee had taken control of Parveen’s properties.
