It is the responsibility of the sister to inform her brother about the sale deed. Whether knowing or unknowing the brother gifted the same property to his sister after a long time. So the gift deed for already sold property is not valid. If possession to the 3rd party is not given, he may approach the court against the said brother.

Title of brother’s property will not pass on to the third party, when the sister signed a sale deed to the third party. This is because the power of attorney is not specific and it is not registered.
If the sister had the registered, special power of attorney, the transfer would have been legally valid.
A person cannot sell a property which he does not own, and no title will pass on to another person, in such an illegal transfer.

The sale of property by an unregistered power of attorney deed is not valid.
The person who purchased the same cannot claim clear and marketable title to it because the person sold do not have any title or authority to sell the property.
