ORDER

The petitioners herein, who were arrested and remanded to judicial custody on 29.08.2025 for the offences punishable under Sections 126(2), 296(b), 115(2), 118(1), 324(2), 125, 309(4), 311, 351(3) of BNS in Crime No.535 of 2025, registered on the file of the respondent police, seek bail. 2.

The case of the prosecution is that on 29.08.2025, the petitioners in drunken mode, waylaid the defacto complainant and robbed a sum of Rs.815/- at knife point; that they further assaulted and threatened the defacto complainant of dire consequences. Hence, this case. 3.

The learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submitted that the petitioners have been falsely implicated in this case and they were in judicial custody since 29.08.2025; and that the petitioners are ready to abide by any condition that may be imposed by this Court and sought for bail to the petitioners.

4.

The learned Government Advocate (Crl. Side) appearing for 2/4

the respondent while opposing the bail to the petitioners reiterated the prosecution case and submitted that the first petitioner/ Lazar has nine previous cases and the second petitioner/ Jeeva has 12 previous cases; and that the investigation of the case is pending. 5.

Considering the submissions made on both sides, nature of offence, the previous antecedents of the petitioners, taking note of the fact that the investigation of this case is pending and if the petitioners are enlarged on bail, the petitioners would indulge in similar offence, hence this Court is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioners. 6.

Accordingly, this criminal original petition stands dismissed. 07.11.2025 stn To

1. The Inspector of Police, T-2 Ambattur Estate Police Station, Tiruvallur District.
