A.See Section 144 is to help you get a kind of stay on the work that he has been doing but it won't it won't get you the benefit starting an investigation against the tenant.
You will have to take the recourse of other provisions to start an FIR against him so that police can investigate the stolen things open a case against him.
Simultaneous, you may look into filing a case for eviction as he has demolished the tenanted premises.
Hire a good lawyer for yourself and start preparing to file cases against him.

A.Hi,
Yes, the tenant will be given the notice to stop any further construction if your suit is successful before the magistrate's court. S. 144 will help you to file in case of unlawful assembly but you will also need to lodge police complaints against your tenants for theft and private nuisance as per S.415 & 268. Alternatively, you can serve them with legal notice.

A.Dear Sir,
Second GD cannot be raised but section 379 / 380 may be added to first GD and FIR will be issued. Approach Civil Court also and get him evicted.

A.Hi,
Section 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) of 1973 authorises the Executive Magistrate of any state or territory to issue an order to prohibit the assembly of four or more people in an area. In addition to it you may also file a complaint of private nuisance u/S 268 IPC and theft of property u/S 378.

A.If you have registered leave and license agreement than just evict the tenant out of the house giving him proper written notice to that effect, you can return his one month's rent probably as notice period waiver and get rid of him.
Anyhow tenancy matters come under civil law therefore if matter does not end up here and you will have to file civil case in the concerned Court. Thank you.
