Dear Sir / Madam,

Your grandfather ought to have left a Will, stating the name of the beneficiary in whose name the tenancy rights have to be transferred to.

1. In the absence of a Will, your brother's objection is valid.

2. Yes. If tenancy rights do not permit sub-letting; so the landlord can sue you for doing it.

3. Since you admit you are not the tenant, the landlord can evict you on the ground of "illegal trespass".

Regards,
