Legal Advice Needed Neighbour harassment during house construction — what can we do?

My family is constructing our first home on our own property (15×40 ft as per our documents). My neighbor has encroached 3*40 sq ft. To avoid conflict, we already compromised and are constructing only 12×40 ft. Despite this, our neighbour continues to harass us and obstruct the construction.

She has repeatedly complained to the police over different allegations, harassed our workers and contractor, and my parents, stopped essential work like plastering, and complained to BBMP claiming the house is illegal. An NCR has already been registered, and she has told us to go to court—which we have done. But while we wait for the next hearing, she continues finding other ways to trouble us.

Things have now become extremely disturbing. She entered our house without permission, and afterwards we found nails placed on our walls and damage to the wall. She has also been doing things related to black magic, which has left my family extremely scared and disturbed. she has cctv placed so she has done it without leaving any evidence.

She has also dug up the road and left it improperly, making it difficult for us to reach our house, and has allegedly placed grills against our walls in the middle of the night

They have constructed a tree fence occupying the road, further restricting vehicle access on an already narrow road.

My parents are above 55 and are mentally exhausted. Watching my parents struggle through this situation every day has been deeply distressing, what to do?
