Velayutham v. The State Rep By

Crl.OP.No.19741 of 2022 Crl.O.P.No.19741 of 2022 G.K.ILANTHIRAIYAN, J.

The petitioner, who was arrested and remanded to judicial custody on 06.01.2022 for the offences punishable under Sections 392, 397 and 506(ii) of IPC in crime No.1 of 2022 on the file of the respondent police, seeks bail.

2. The case of the prosecution is that the petitioner waylaid the defacto complainant and snatched a sum of Rs.950/- from him at knife point. Hence, the case.

3. The learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner is an innocent person and he has been falsely implicated in this case. Hence, he seeks for grant of bail to the petitioner.

4. The learned Government Advocate (Crl.side) appearing for the respondent submitted that that the petitioner is an history sheeter and habitual offender having 9 previous cases pending against him. If he is released on bail, he will indulge in similar crime. Hence, he vehemently opposed for grant of bail to the petitioner.

5. Considering the bad antecedents of the petitioner, this Court is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, this criminal original petition is dismissed.
