2. This case is registered for alleged offence under Section 4(b) of the Tamil Nadu Public Property (Prevention of Damage and Loss) Act, 1992. The incident occurred on 08.03.2014. The allegation in this case is that the accused is said to have put up a party's flags and postures without permission. For the said allegation, the matter is pending from the year 2022.
