Kareena Kapoor is overjoyed with the Delhi High Court's ruling in favour of her sister Karisma and her children. The court has directed the maintenance of the status quo on the estates of late Sunjay Kapur, allowing the interim injunction plea filed by Karisma's children.
Kareena took to her Instagram Stories to express her happiness, saying, 'And there is light. Justice and truth will always prevail.'
The Delhi High Court has directed the filing of account statements and restrained the operation of foreign bank accounts and cryptocurrency holdings. The court has also ruled that the question of preservation of the estate must be answered in the affirmative, noting that the trial may take time and, in the meantime, the assets must be protected.
The injunction plea was moved by Sunjay's children from his previous marriage with Karisma, who has challenged the authenticity of the will. Senior Advocate Mahesh Jethmalani, representing the children, pointed to alleged inconsistencies in the will, including its language, lack of registration, and questions over its preparation.
Sunjay Kapur's estate controversy has been ongoing since his sudden death in June last year. His estate, estimated to be worth ₹30,000 crore, has become the centre of a fierce family battle. Priya Sachdev, Sunjay's second wife, had presented a document claiming it was his will, which was challenged by Karisma's children.
