2. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home appearing on behalf of respondent Nos.1 to 4. With their consent, this writ petition is taken up for disposal. Notice to respondent Nos.5 to 7 is hereby dispensed with.

3. The facts of the case in brief as stated are that petitioner’s grandmother claims to be absolute owners and possessor of agricultural land to an extent of Ac.0-38 gts., in Sy.No.186/AA of Patti Village, Patancheru Mandal, Sanga Reddy District acquired by way of registered sale deed bearing Doc.No.17916 of 1982 dated 07.04.1982. After the death of petitioner’s grandmother, her three sons inherited the said property. Subsequent thereto, petitioner’s father has become absolute owner of said property due to relinquishment by one of the sons and death of another. It is submitted that one Mr.Vijay Kumar along with his henchmen illegally trespassed into the property and unlawfully erected iron sheets around the land. When the petitioner came to know that the said Mr.Vijay Kumar is claiming as owner of plot No.185 of Patti Village, Patancheru Mandal, Sanga Reddy District, and that petitioner is owner of 186/AA, to avoid ambiguity, petitioner filed application before the Deputy Inspector of Survey, Sanga Reddy District seeking demarcation of land. Pursuant to the same, the Deputy Inspector of Survey conducted survey and categorically confirmed that petitioner land falls in Sy.No.186/AA and not in Sy.No.185. Insptie of that the said Vijay Kumar is trying to encroach the petitioner’s property.

4. Owing to the said acts of Mr.Vijay Kumar, petitioner lodged a complaint before respondent No.4 Police, whereby a Crime in Cr.No.116/2025 was duly registered. The main grievance of the petitioner is that respondent No.4 instead of acting on the complaint of the petitioner, had colluded with the henchmen of Mr.Vijay Kumar and is gaining interest over the petitioner’s property and no action has been taken on the complaint of the petitioner. As such, petitioner has approached Civil Court by instituting a suit in O.S.No.367 of 2025 on the file of Principal Junior Civil Judge, Sanga Reddy District for injunction and an I.A.No.406 of 2025 was filed under Order XXXIX Rules 1 and 2 of C.P.C. seeking interim injunction. Accordingly, the trial Court granted interim injunction. The petitioner also made a representation to Director General of Police, Telangana on 08.07.2025 narrating all the incidents. Thereafter, on 10.07.2025 petitioner lodged another complaint to respondent No.4 with regard to frequent threats from the said Vijay Kumar. However, no action has been taken by respondent Police. Questioning the same, the present writ petition is filed.

5. The Sub-Inspector of Police, BDL Bhanur Police Station has placed a copy of instructions through learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home and would submit that on the complaint of the petitioner dated 20.04.2025, respondent No.4 Police has conducted enquiry and registered a Crime in Cr.No.116/2025 dated 22.04.2025 under Section 329(3), 324(4), 115(2), 351(2) of BNS against respondent Nos.6 and 7.
