law: Indian Trusts Act, 1882 
  27. Several liability of co-trustees 
  Where co-trustees jointly commit a breach of trust, or where one
  
  of them by his neglect enables the other to commit a breach of trust, each is
  
  liable to the beneficiary for the whole of the loss occasioned by such breach.
  Contribution as between co-trustees
  But as between the trustees themselves, if one be less guilty
  
  than another and has had to refund the loss, the former may compel the latter,
  
  or his legal representative to the extent of the assets he has received, to
  
  make good such loss; and if all be equally guilty, any one or more of the
  
  trustees who has had to refund the loss may compel the others to contribute.
  Nothing in this section shall be deemed to authorize a trustee
  
  who has been guilty of fraud to institute a suit to compel contribution.
