No.15940 of 2024(3) dt.16-05-2024 2/2 the shop of the petitioner and there were some dues and when the daughter of the informant came to purchase household articles, the petitioner demanded his dues, on which an altercation took place and thereafter the mother of the victim also came and instituted the instant case after two days. 4.

The learned APP along with learned counsel for the informant opposes the anticipatory bail application and the learned counsel for the informant submits that from perusal of the allegation as alleged in the FIR, it would manifest that it was not petitioner alone who acted inappropriately with the daughter of the informant rather he was accompanied by two more accused persons and petitioner has antecedent of five cases. It is also submitted that no mother would institute a false FIR maligning her own daughter for some monetary dues. 5.

Considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the informant, the Court is not inclined to extend the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. 6.

Accordingly, the instant anticipatory bail application is dismissed.
