Travellers' Tales: Indonesian property seller died

Problem
You buy a home or business in Asia. What could go wrong?

Answers
A Brit claims he bought a part share in a business from an old man. At first all went well. He gradually built up the business until it was making a profit.

However, ten years on, the old man died. The old man's descendants came back and said, 'This land has been ours for generations. Get off our land.'

The Brit claims: 'I went to court. However, the police and solicitors were the brothers of my adversaries.'

I later questioned him again for an update. He replied:
'I got my money back.  But others lost everything.'
