This query is : Resolved
Sir ,
My house was rented unknowingly to a Criminal who is wanted by Police .The Criminal and his Family have occupied our house for last one year now .5 Months back we requested them to vacate our house suspecting his movements and suspected visitors in odd hours .For last 4 months he did not pay rent though enjoying undisturbed supply of Water & Power .We recently understood that he was under Goondas Act & Wanted by Police in various cases.The Tenant claimed his wrong deeds and threatened us of life if we flare up with Police or Public claiming that he can get away with any crime with his influence.We being law abiding citizens took the courage and confidence in our Police/Law and proceed with a Police complaint confirming his presence in our rented house and his undue threats and intimidation .
Police came after 10 days in response to our complaint just to find him not not available.The criminals wife stays but he oflate comes in odd hours without our notice after checking with his wife over her mobile phone .Mostly the rented house is locked ,moreover they are not giving their contact number too for us to check for any eventuality .
Police seem to be not keen to take any action in this regard in terms of quick action in arresting him or to search his house, question his wife(who has his contacts)of his where abouts or to evict. The Criminal claims that he has mussel & money power with high level of influence .
Please advise as to what other action is required to evict them in view of his Criminal deeds and non payment of rent for long .
Please advice if
1.we can cut power and water supply .
2.Can we proceed to lock the rented house over and above their lock .
3.If in case Police decide to break open the lock to check for suspected /confiscated possessions of the criminal , What should we do ?
4.should we proceed with legal not suit?
Please advice, Tks /S.Chandrasekar

if you have given complaint to the local police, please contact some senior level police officers like DSP/SP or higher level appraise the situation.
other actions suggested by you may be legally right,but do not recommend the same considering your safety.
