4. The learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the respondent would submit that earlier this Court had dismissed the anticipatory bail petition in Crl.O.P.No.26765 of 2022 dated 04.11.2022 on the ground that the investigation is at initial stage. Therefore, he vehemently opposed for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

5. Taking into account the nature of offence, the submissions of either sides and also the fact that there is no change of circumstances, this Court is not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, this Criminal Original Petition is dismissed. 22.11.2022 shk Crl.O.P.No.26941 of 2022 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis
