Facebook Graph API: The Comments API does not return comment made by another user

Today, I noticed that the Facebook Graph API query does not return the comments made by another user.
Suppose, UserA created a postX and another userB add a comment on this post. Now, When I make the following api to get posts and comments of userA by passing the access_token of userA, the comments of userB is not returned.

{user_id}?fields=id,name,link,feed.fields(id,message_tags,source,with_tags,to,from,created_time,type,privacy,place,message,story,description,link,attachments,properties,caption,name,comments.fields(id,from,message,attachment,created_time,message_tags).order(reverse_chronological).limit(5)).since(1516531598).limit(3)

I have searched on the Facebook API change logs if there is any changes regarding the comment API but could not find any.
