- 3 - AO 60 of 2016.

the Inventory Proceedings which were initially initiated in 1945

on the death of Rosa Joaquina Luis De Souza and subsequently

in the proceedings continued thereafter on the demise of her

husband Emidio Simao Ismael de Souza in 1974. The Cabeca

de Casal had during the pendency of the Inventory Proceedings

executed the Deed of Relinquishment and Gift dated 24.01.1975

renouncing her share in the property of her father Emidio Simao

Ismael de Souza. The Deed of Assignment and Transfer was

executed by Maria Teresa De Souza, sister of the Cabeca de

Casal on 21.10.1976 ceding her right to the estate of her father

in favour of her brother Mario Cornelio Francisco De Souza i.e.

Inventariado. His son Ernesto Agnelo De Souza had executed

the Deed of Assignment on 10.1.1979 in favour of her brother

Fausto De Souza who during his life time sold 2/3rd of his share

by the Deed of Sale dated 25.9.2006 to one Natalina Fernandes.

The other brother Mario had purchased from Natalina by the

Deed of Sale dated 12.10.2006 the 2/3rd share of Fausto De

Souza earlier sold to her and therefore Mario was sole and

exclusive owner of the entire properties. The said Mario had

expired on 16.6.2007 while Fausto had expired on 20.10.2007.

upon the locker being found empty on opening and therefore an

application was filed for temporary injunction which however
