Delhi HC Asks Priya Kapur to Respond to Children's Will Inspection Plea
Karisma Kapoor's children want to see their late dad's will to check if it's real.
They think their stepmom might have forged it.
The court asked the stepmom to respond and might stop her from selling their dad's stuff while they check the will.
Delhi High Court has requested a response from Priya Kapur regarding a plea by Karisma Kapoor's children to inspect their late father Sunjay Kapur's alleged will.
The children claim the alleged will is forged, with signatures not belonging to their father and allegedly forged by Priya Kapur in collusion with witnesses.
Priya Kapur's counsel has called the children's claims 'bogus and baseless' and suggested the signature dispute arose after their initial arguments were challenged.
The children are seeking to inspect the original will, filed in a sealed cover, to verify its genuineness.
The court is also considering an interim injunction to prevent Priya Kapur from selling Sunjay Kapur's assets, with further hearings scheduled.

Children's Stance
Priya Kapur's Stance
Authenticity of Sunjay Kapur's Will and Signatures
Children's Stance
Karisma Kapoor's children allege the purported will is forged and fabricated, with signatures not belonging to their father. They seek to inspect the original will to ascertain its genuineness and suspect Priya Kapur, in collusion with attesting witnesses, forged the signatures.
Priya Kapur's Stance
Priya Kapur's counsel argues the children's claims are 'bogus and baseless' and were only raised after their initial claims were challenged. They previously contended that spelling errors do not invalidate a will and that the children had not disputed Sunjay Kapur's signature.
Reason for Inspection Request
Children's Stance
The children need to inspect the original will to determine its genuineness and take appropriate steps, as this cannot be ascertained from a certified copy.
Priya Kapur's Stance
The opposing counsel suggests the request for inspection was a strategic shift after their earlier arguments were countered, implying the timing of the claim is suspect.
