The suit is one for cancellation of a gift deed<\/p>\n<p>and for recovery of possession after removing the<\/p>\n<p>unauthorized construction.      The original plaintiff is the<\/p>\n<p>executant of the gift deed. It is averred that she has not<\/p>\n<p>executed any gift deed on her own volition and the first<\/p>\n<p>defendant and her husband had played a fraud and mis-<\/p>\n<p>representation on the original plaintiff and thus a<\/p>\n<p>document was executed and registered on 16.4.78. It is<\/p>\n<p>submitted that the original plaintiff was illiterate, unable<\/p>\n<p>to understand the consequences of her action and<\/p>\n<p>therefore the document is liable to be set aside. It is<\/p>\n<p>contended that when the original plaintiff came to attend<\/p>\n<p>a marriage the first defendant requested her that an<\/p>\n<p>A.S. 387 OF 1998<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_1\">                                 -2-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>authorisation letter is necessary for managing the plaint<\/p>\n<p>schedule property and therefore she had affixed her<\/p>\n<p>thumb impression to such a letter and therefore she has<\/p>\n<p>not executed the gift deed. It is also contended that only<\/p>\n<p>in the year 1991 she came to know about the execution<\/p>\n<p>of the gift deed and thereafter has filed a suit.<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_1\">      2.    On the other hand the only defendant at the<\/p>\n<p>institution of the suit would contend that the gift deed is<\/p>\n<p>executed by the mother on her own volition and free will<\/p>\n<p>and the first defendant has accepted the gift and in<\/p>\n<p>pursuance of the same had made a construction on the<\/p>\n<p>property and therefore there are no grounds to set aside<\/p>\n<p>the document.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_2\">      3.    In the trial court PWs.1 and 2 and DWs.1 and 2<\/p>\n<p>were examined and Exts.A1 to A4 and B1 to B8 were<\/p>\n<p>marked.     During the pendency of the trial the original<\/p>\n<p>plaintiff died and her legal representatives are impleaded<\/p>\n<p>as    supplemental       2nd   plaintiff and  supplemental<\/p>\n<p>A.S. 387 OF 1998<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_1\">                             -3-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>defendants 3 to 5.          The points that arise       for<\/p>\n<p>determination in the appeal are, (1) Whether there are<\/p>\n<p>circumstances to set aside Ext.B1 document? and (2) Is<\/p>\n<p>there anything to interfere with the finding rendered by<\/p>\n<p>the lower Court?\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_3\">      Points 1 and 2:\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_4\">      4.    These points are answered together for the<\/p>\n<p>sake of convenience.         Admittedly the relationship<\/p>\n<p>between the original parties is that of a daughter and<\/p>\n<p>mother. The case of the mother is that the daughter got<\/p>\n<p>document executed under the pretext of an authorisation<\/p>\n<p>document and therefore the document is vitiated by<\/p>\n<p>fraud and mis-representation.        On the contra the<\/p>\n<p>daughter would contend that the mother had understood<\/p>\n<p>the contents of the document and she had voluntarily<\/p>\n<p>executed the gift deed on her own volition and free will<\/p>\n<p>and so it does not call for any setting aside. The original<\/p>\n<p>defendant has also got a case that really the mother has<\/p>\n<p>A.S. 387 OF 1998<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_2\">                              -4-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>not understood the suit and it is the supplemental 2nd<\/p>\n<p>plaintiff who is behind the screen. Now whatever it may<\/p>\n<p>be when the matter reached the stage of trial the mother<\/p>\n<p>was not alive and so the fight was between the 2nd<\/p>\n<p>plaintiff and the first defendant.        The 2nd plaintiff<\/p>\n<p>admittedly is the eldest son of the original plaintiff. The<\/p>\n<p>first defendant is the daughter and defendants 2 to 5 are<\/p>\n<p>also other children of deceased Leela, the original<\/p>\n<p>plaintiff.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_5\">      5.    So far as the execution of the document is<\/p>\n<p>concerned it is submitted that a document has been got<\/p>\n<p>registered.     The signature in the document therefore<\/p>\n<p>cannot be put into dispute. But I am conscious of the fact<\/p>\n<p>that when a document is alleged to be executed by an illiterate<\/p>\n<p>woman, the person who claims benefit under the<\/p>\n<p>document under law has an obligation to prove that the<\/p>\n<p>person who executed the document was aware of the<\/p>\n<p>contents of the document and she had voluntarily<\/p>\n<p>executed the same.           So this depends upon the<\/p>\n<p>A.S. 387 OF 1998<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_3\">                                -5-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>appreciation of the evidence and the subsequent conduct<\/p>\n<p>of the parties. Now I will refer to the evidence available in<\/p>\n<p>the matter.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_6\">      6.    PW1 and DW1 are the two rival claimants. The<\/p>\n<p>evidence of PW1, (i.e. the supplemental 2nd plaintiff)<\/p>\n<p>would at least reveal one fact that according to him he<\/p>\n<p>was also available when the document was executed. The<\/p>\n<p>2nd plaintiff and the other two sons of the original plaintiff<\/p>\n<p>were available on the spot at the time of the execution of<\/p>\n<p>the document.      It is too far-fetched to think that a lady<\/p>\n<p>namely first defendant would have been in a position to<\/p>\n<p>over power them without permitting them to look into the<\/p>\n<p>contents of the documents. One of the brothers namely<\/p>\n<p>Sreedharan is an attesting witness to the document. 2nd<\/p>\n<p>attesting witness is another brother. Sreedharan as DW2<\/p>\n<p>has very clearly deposed that he along with his brother<\/p>\n<p>had come all the way from Mangalore for the purpose of<\/p>\n<p>standing as a witness to the document and at the time of<\/p>\n<p>A.S. 387 OF 1998<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_4\">                                -6-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>the execution of the document mother was capable of<\/p>\n<p>understanding the consequences of her action and<\/p>\n<p>according to him she had put her signature or thumb<\/p>\n<p>impression only after understanding the contents of the<\/p>\n<p>document.       It is also deposed by him that a scribe has<\/p>\n<p>read over the document and the mother has agreed for<\/p>\n<p>the same and that had led to the writing of the original of<\/p>\n<p>the document and subsequent act of registration. The 2nd<\/p>\n<p>plaintiff would submit that he was available in the house<\/p>\n<p>when the document was registered.           If he had any<\/p>\n<p>apprehension in the mind certainly he would have raised<\/p>\n<p>the same and certainly would not have kept quiet or<\/p>\n<p>allowed the mother to keep quiet for a long period of 13<\/p>\n<p>years to initiate any action. It has to be stated that fraud<\/p>\n<p>cannot be inferred from conjectures and surmises. What<\/p>\n<p>is a fraudulent action has to be proved.       Similarly the<\/p>\n<p>undue influence or mis-representation are also matters<\/p>\n<p>which has to be specifically pleaded and proved. In order<\/p>\n<p>A.S. 387 OF 1998<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_5\">                             -7-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>to prove undue influence one should prove that one party<\/p>\n<p>was in a position to dominate the will of other party by<\/p>\n<p>virtue of the position and get the document executed.<\/p>\n<p>Admittedly the mother was not residing with the first<\/p>\n<p>defendant and therefore the question of any domination<\/p>\n<p>does not arise. So far as mis-representation is concerned<\/p>\n<p>it has to be stated even according to the 2nd plaintiff the<\/p>\n<p>first defendant and the mother were living together in the<\/p>\n<p>property prior to the execution of the document.       The<\/p>\n<p>mother had understood the daughter and even according<\/p>\n<p>to the 2nd plaintiff besides mother three other children<\/p>\n<p>were available at the time of the registration of the<\/p>\n<p>document. Men may lie but circumstances will never lie.<\/p>\n<p>The two brothers who have got equal interest in the<\/p>\n<p>mother had chosen to be the witness to the gift deed and<\/p>\n<p>out of them one has mounted the box and had given<\/p>\n<p>clear and cogent evidence regarding the execution and<\/p>\n<p>understanding of the document by the mother.          Why<\/p>\n<p>A.S. 387 OF 1998<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_6\">                              -8-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>should he perjure and it is also interesting to note there is<\/p>\n<p>no case for the supplemental 2nd plaintiff that the other<\/p>\n<p>brothers have been won over by the 2nd defendant so as<\/p>\n<p>to give evidence against him. So the evidence of DW1<\/p>\n<p>and DW2 would clearly and convincingly establish about<\/p>\n<p>the mental faculty of the mother, her execution of the<\/p>\n<p>documents, the acceptance of the gift etc. The fraud and<\/p>\n<p>the     alleged   mis-representation    does    not   stand<\/p>\n<p>established at all.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_7\">      7.    It is also to be held just because the first<\/p>\n<p>defendant&#8217;s husband happened to be a Registrar, all the<\/p>\n<p>officers working in the Department will support him.<\/p>\n<p>There is always a presumption u\/s 114 of the <a href=\"\/doc\/1953529\/\" id=\"a_1\">Evidence<\/p>\n<p>Act<\/a> and when a statutory act is done by a person in his<\/p>\n<p>official capacity that he does follow the procedure to be<\/p>\n<p>followed and then only do the act.         So it has to be<\/p>\n<p>presumed that the person who had registered the<\/p>\n<p>document was totally aware of the act which he was<\/p>\n<p>A.S. 387 OF 1998<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_7\">                              -9-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>performing and therefore it has to be also viewed in<\/p>\n<p>favour of the first defendant.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_8\">      8.    Now regarding the conduct of the parties. Had<\/p>\n<p>it only be an authorisation registered in 1978 under no<\/p>\n<p>stretch of imagination one can expect the persons to<\/p>\n<p>keep quiet till 1991. It has also to be stated that on the<\/p>\n<p>strength of the document the first defendant has moved<\/p>\n<p>in the right direction and had obtained a permit and<\/p>\n<p>constructed a building, had changed the mutation in her<\/p>\n<p>name and also the building tax assessment changed in<\/p>\n<p>her name. Therefore she has acted upon on the basis of<\/p>\n<p>Ext.B1 document. Though the 2nd plaintiff would contend<\/p>\n<p>that the mother had paid tax up to 1981 or 1985 not even<\/p>\n<p>a scrap of paper is forthcoming to establish the same. So<\/p>\n<p>it has to be held that the evidence of DW1 and DW2 is<\/p>\n<p>fully supported and corroborated by the subsequent<\/p>\n<p>conduct of the parties.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_9\">A.S. 387 OF 1998<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_8\">                             -10-<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"p_10\">      9.    So far as the mother is concerned her capacity<\/p>\n<p>to understand is established and therefore there is<\/p>\n<p>nothing to prove regarding the inability element to her at<\/p>\n<p>the time of the execution of the document. Therefore<\/p>\n<p>from the materials available the Court below has rightly<\/p>\n<p>found out that the original plaintiff namely Leela had<\/p>\n<p>executed Ext.B1 fully understanding the contents of the<\/p>\n<p>same and had voluntarily gifted the property which has<\/p>\n<p>been accepted by the first defendant. Therefore there<\/p>\n<p>are no grounds to set aside the findings of the Court<\/p>\n<p>below. Hence the appeal fails and the same is dismissed<\/p>\n<p>but without costs.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_11\">\n<p id=\"p_12\">                              M.N.
