Strange question I know, but I need to find out officially if and when a neighbour has died. I have been told that he was killed in a car crash in India about three years ago but have no proof that this occurred.

He was a leaseholder in the apartments where I live and we need to know the official status before we can deal with some legal matters. Any suggestions how to find out would help. Thanks.

Oh no I realised after I posted that title the scoobynet massive would be on it in double quick time with the one liners.

Not sure if he was a UK national, seemed to spend half the year here then half in India. I assume you can only apply for a copy death certificate from the gov.uk if you know someone is actually deceased.

Whoever deals with the leasehold stuff should have access to his solicitor who should know. dl

scoobeenut

Well leasehold was in his name but if he is deceased then probate was not completed properly as property still in his name at Land Registry.

Suspect his relatives/benefactors may be just continuing to pay mortgage and bills etc. without informing anyone or maybe just lying about his death.

Anyone can access <anyone> elses death certificate. Or at least you can in the UK. Just ring up where the death would have been registered. It'll cost you a few quid, but you can access it.

Failing that, just give them a and if they do nothing, they're dead.

scoobeenut

Was told he died in India so probably no death certificate in the UK, can't beleive how difficult it is to find out if someone is actually deceased.
