Upon contest, the said suit was dismissed by judgment and decree dated 18.02.2020, on the ground that the 5th respondent failed to prove his ownership against the said land. The 5th respondent having lost in the said suit, influenced the 3rd respondent-Thasildar to dispossess the petitioner from the subject land. It is further contended by the petitioner that on 16.06.2020, the 3rd respondent’s staff visited the subject land and threatened the petitioner to vacate from the same.
