Hello @sakthi17

No one on this forum can access the links provided by you as these are pointing to Google My Business.
Nevertheless, if you are a business owner, you need to take up the problem in GMB forum. The Connect site is for the Local Guides doing a voluntary activity.

Hi @sakthi17

As you are talking about Google my Business, you should search for an answer on the Google My Business help area first.

And the answer is in there: Request removal of customer photos

In there you will find a detailed explanation about Request removal of customer photos in your account, and also about Flag a photo or user in Google Maps.

As you can see, the Help page of Google My Business can help you to solve your issue with tools specifically designed for the businesses.

Of course you are welcome to contribute in the community as a Local Guide.

Participate as a business is against the Local Guides Program Terms and Conditions : “Organizations, brands, and businesses are not eligible for the Program.”

I have mentioned it here because the guy posting the fake photos is a local guide!
