The answer

If the deceased leaves no lineal descendants or ascendants, but leaves a wife, two full sisters, three paternal half-sisters, and one paternal half-brother, then the wife receives one-fourth, the two full sisters receive two-thirds, and the remainder goes to the paternal half-brother and half-sisters, with the male receiving the share of two females. The inheritance is divided into sixty shares.

If the deceased does not leave a wife, then the two full sisters receive two-thirds, and the remainder goes to the paternal half-siblings, with the male receiving the share of two females. The inheritance is divided into fifteen shares.

It is advisable to refer inheritance matters to the courts to verify the existence of other heirs, or any wills and debts that take precedence over the rights of the heirs.
