4.Per contra, the learned Government Advocate (Crl. Side) would submit that the petitioner is a habitual offender against whom there are five previous cases similar in nature pending against her. 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 and 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. 16.11.2022 vkr Crl.O.P.No.27898 of 2022 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis
