3.The learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submit that the petitioners have not committed any offence as alleged by the prosecution and they have been falsely implicated in this case. He further submitted that the said lands are the ancestral property of the first petitioner's father Mottaiyan. Due to the family arrangement, the said lands were alloted to the first petitioner's father and some other lands were allotted to the defacto complainant's father. Taking advantage of the wrong entry made during UDR scheme, the defacto complainant gave the false complaint without filing civil suit to establish his alleged right over the said lands. Hence, he prays for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. 4.The learned Additional Public Prosecutor submits that in order to grab the property the petitioners have indulged in criminal activities. Hence, he opposed for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

5. Taking into consideration the facts of the case and the nature of offence committed by the petitioner, more particularly land grabbing and that investigation of the case is still underway, this Court is of the opinion that it would not be justiciable to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner at this point of time. 6.Accordingly, this Criminal Original Petition is dismissed. -sd/- 08/04/2021 This order, on being produced, be punctually observed and carried into execution by all concerned TRUE COPY Sub-Assistant Registrar (Statistics/C.S.)
