This query is : Resolved
Dear Sir / Madam,
We had registered a Trust Deed on 2000 with 20 members, due to some reasons 15 trustees (some of the trustees are died & we added their legal heirs) joined together & made a new amended trust deed, in the local registration office.
The following are the findings, which we later found in the registered amended trust deed:
1. One of the Trustee was died on 2007, but in the new amended deed, it was written as he is still alive & due to his illness, his legal heir has become the member of the Trust (The died person, haven't written any will / document for appointing his son as a trustee)
2. Is this a criminal offence, for stating a false statement in the recently registered trust deed? Please let me know the criminal sections & what kind of punishment would be given under the law?
3. What will be consequences if any of the public / remaining 5 trustees files a criminal suit based on this amended deed?
4. To avoid criminal / civil suits, please let me know what has to be done?
Thanks in advance.

If anybody takes the mistake as a "serious" and made an "allegation" against the other trustees, then you go for a "rectification deed" and correct the same what ever you want.

Correct the mistake by filing of the rectification deed.
