It is alleged that during the times of the respondents/accused working as town planning officers-cum-building overseers in that area of Visakhapatnam, unauthorised buildings were constructed in lands in S.Nos.11 and 12 of Kaparada village within the Corporation limits. There is no allegation that any of the respondents demanded or accepted any bribe or obtained any peculiar advantage from the respective building owners for allowing them to construct their buildings unauthorisedly. In the absence of the said basic requirement, A.C.B should not have filed the complaints in the lower Court against the respondents. This Court may observe that in doing so, A.C.B has over stepped its function. The lower Court rightly refused to entertain the complaints. 2) In the result, all the three revision petitions are dismissed. _______________________________ SAMUDRALA GOVINDARAJULU, J August 17, 2010 KSH
