The High Court on Friday issued non-bailable warrants to Mandal Parishad Development Officer of Shamirpet and secretary of Majidpur gram panchayat of Medchal Malkajgiri district who did not turn up before the HC despite a specific direction issued on November 18.
A Bench of Chief Justice Alok Aradhe and Justice Anil Kumar Jukanti, passing the order, instructed the police officer concerned to arrest the MPDO and village secretary, and produce them before it on December 11.
The Bench was hearing a PIL petition filed by a resident of Majidpur on Hyderabad’s northern outskirts. The petitioner said in his plea that he complained to the authorities about the illegal constructions being carried out in survey nos. 40 and 48 of the village.
