The most appropriate legal actions which can be taken would be filing an Injunction suit restraining the person from going to terrace and for removing the tank as placed by him wrongly and to make all necessary repairs and bear the costs of the same. And you can also seek damages from him.

Please share your documents through which the rights were conveyed to you. Don't worry about the police officers. File suit for damages and injunction directing the Police officer to stop interfering you. Please note that if you keep the trespasser using the terrace, a right may be created against you for her to use the terrace.
Send a legal notice first. If you are financially weak, I will do it pro bono.

We need to consider and see your rights on the floor. If you have exclusive rights you can very well file a complaint of trespassing and damaging your property. Doesn’t matter if the person is in police, law is equal for all. Plz contact me for further assistance

you can initiate action against him in both civil law as well as criminal law.

Criminal Action

2.You can complaint to his/her superior of his misuse of his position and for harassing you

CIVIL ACTION
You can file civil suit for injunction and damages to your property.You can initiate the action by giving a legal notice to the person stating that if she do not mend her ways and do the things rightfully then you will be forced to approach the court of law.
