the first thing is you belong to which jurisdiction? the laws will be applicable according to that. In general, such harassment is punishable under law. Also under Family law, if the parents are not capable of maintaining themselves, the son has the liability to maintain the parents. property is not required to be given to the son while the mother is alive as it belongs to her on paper. She can call police for help and she can be sent to old age home for safety.
