Poperty right for daughter

My sister-in-law's uncle and aunty expired 10 years ago,later her husband also expired.

Now her husband's sister claiming our sister-in-law's property..she wants her share from the property.

She's maried 20 yrs back she has sons who are majors,since the death of her husband she has no relation withe her husband's family.

As per law can she claim for the share in property,does she have the right for that??

Please sugest for options..

Assuming the parties to be hindu, the deceased husband's sister can lay no claim on his property for she is a class II heir, and in the presence of Class I heir i.e widow - there is no right. However if the property was an ancestral one and not absolutely owned by her husband - then she is automatically entitled to half of the same.
