The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner had already filed a suit in O.S.No.202 of 2016 seeking declaration of title, permanent injunction and removal of the encroachment made by the 5th and 6th respondents herein. The said suit was decreed by Judgment and Decree dated 12.04.2022. However, the petitioner was unable to execute the said decree. Consequently, he filed a private complaint in Crl.M.P.No.37371 of 2023 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate No.II, Hosur, wherein, the learned Judicial Magistrate No.II, Hosur, directed the second respondent to conduct an enquiry and submit a report.

Further, the petitioner obtained an order from this Court in W.P.No.30596 of 2023 to survey the subject property. However, the fifth and sixth respondents obstructed the surveyor from surveying the property. Consequently, the petitioner has been unable unable to enjoy the subject property, which constrained him to lodge the present complaint. 5.

Admittedly, the petitioner has obtained a decree for removal of the encroachment. Therefore, the petitioner ought to have approached the civil Court to execute the decree obtained against the fifth and sixth respondents. The petitioner may also seek police aid before the Executing Court to enforce the decree.

6.
