He said the respondent Chief Minister without any lawful authority had allotted the said land to his favourite Abu Bakar.
He said the court had issued a status quo order but the respondent while ignoring the court orders destroyed his nursery and occupied the land in question. He said a sessions judge had also submitted his report that the respondent had destroyed his nursery, but the respondent police officials failed to take any action against the respondent Abu Bakar.
