HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:52391 CRP No. 778 of 2023
1665 of 2017. The learned Trial Judge after notifying the
judgment debtors, passed the order as referred to supra.
5. Being aggrieved by the same, the present petitioner has filed the above revision petition on the following grounds: The impugned order is contrary to law and evidence on record.
The Court below is not properly construed and appreciated the pleadings.
The Court below on the basis of solitary evidence of PW-1 ought not to have decreed the suit more particularly when both the defendants having served remain absent throughout.
A perusal of EP at page No.3, the schedule is vague and misleading. The details of main road, cross road, BBMP ward No. forming part of survey number etc are not forthcoming. The dimensions also cannot be construed as that of 'A' schedule property. Merely on the strength of boundaries shown in E.P., by no stretch of imagination it can be construed that it belongs to the present petitioner.
In the affidavit sworn, it is stated that the JDR are residing. This is a total blatant lie. If really the Judgement were to be in possession, they would have been summoned by the police. To that extent the decree holder has filed a false affidavit. The Police have never summoned the Judgement Debtors. Moreso, when the present
- 6 -
HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:52391 CRP No. 778 of 2023
petitioners are residing at any rate, on the strength of the shcheudle offended to the E.P., the decree holder cannot convert it into as that belonging to the A schedule property belonging to the present petitioner.
Proper presumption of law and fact are not drawn.
The reasons assigned and the conclusion drawn is erroneous resulting in miscarriage of justice.
The Court below has exercised the jurisdiction which is not vested in it by law. Further it has failed to exercise a jurisdiction which is so vested. At the same time, there is improper exercise of its jurisdiction with material irregularity and acted not in accordance with law. These circumstances, ultimately paved way for failure of justice resulting in irrevocable injury to the petitioner. For somebody else lapses the compound wall and the temporary structure ought not to have been demolished employing excavator.
6. Shri.S.V.Angadi,
learned counsel for the petitioner reiterating the grounds urged in the revision petition vehemently contented that the suit property is absolutely belonging to the petitioner and clandestinely an
order of injunction is obtained and in the guise of executing the said order, the property of the petitioner has been smashed and his car has been damaged, inmates of

the car including the driver were thrown out and they were beaten up. Therefore, the order of the Execution Court needs to be revised.
7. Per contra Shri.P.N.Manmohan, learned counsel would contend that petitioner is not known to the decree holder and if any independent claim exists in revision petitioner, his remedy lies elsewhere and sought for dismissal of the revision petition.
8. Having heard the arguments of both sides, this Court perused the material on record meticulously.
9. On such perusal of the material on record, it is crystal clear that the petitioner is not a party to the suit nor the execution petition.
10. If the revision petitioner is having any independent right over the subject matter of the revision petition, he may file necessary proceedings and obtain necessary orders before the appropriate Forum.
