2. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that petitioner is falsely implicated in this case and he is in judicial custody from 16.05.2023. Thus, he seeks bail for the petitioner.

3. In response, the learned Government Advocate (Crl.Side) submitted that petitioner was found in possession of 2 Kgs of Ganja on 16.05.2023 at 8.45 a.m. near Selva Perumal Temple.

5.Accordingly, this Criminal Original Petition is dismissed. 11.07.2023 sli
