I had a common backside boundary wall with my backside neighbour. I had constructed single story only. My backside neighbour had constructed three storey building. At the back side veranda he build stair cases on the common wall. In between the staircases he left the space open. He had rented his entire building and the tenants keep throwing garbage towards our side. They also keep sitting on the stairs thus hindering our privacy. I asked about these problems to my neighbour but in vein. Atlast I build/closed the open area between stairs. My neighbour starts shouting that I had blocked his air. One day when I was out of station there was my mother only in the house he broke the wall and make a window inbetween the stairs although my mother pleads to him that let my son come and then take any action. But he did not stop and fractured the wall. I filed a FIR with Police for forcefully dismantling the wall and ask to take action against my neighbour under criminal case. Police authority replies that it is a property matter and go to civil court. My query is that should my neighbour not be booked under criminal laws for his DADAGIRI
