The question

Is the partner obligated to guarantee the capital of his relative that was invested in the collapsed company? Is he legally obligated to return the capital due to the existence of a trust receipt? Does the relative have the right to sue him based on this receipt, given that the money was for investment, not a loan or a trust?

The answer

Since your relative gave you his money to invest in the company, and you did so, you are not a guarantor of his money. He is not permitted to use the trust receipt to pressure you and wrongfully seize your money, because an agent is a trustee, and a trustee is not liable unless he transgresses or neglects his duty. The conduct of the company's management should be examined to determine the guarantee.
