4. Per contra, the learned Government Advocate (Crl. Side) would submit that the petitioner is an habitual offender and that there are four previous cases similar in nature including a case under Section 307 IPC, pending against the petitioner. Hence, he vehemently opposed for the grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

5. Taking into account the nature of offence and the previous antecedents of the petitioner, this Court is not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, this Criminal Original Petition is dismissed.
