ORDER

The petitioner was arrested on 11.08.2025, on execution of Non-Bailable Warrant issued by the Judicial Magistrate No.II, Krishnagiri for the offence under Sections 454 and 380 of IPC, pending trial in C.C.No.267 of 2020 in Crime No.238 of 2019 on the file of the respondent police, seeks bail.

2. The allegation against the petitioner is that he was involved for the offence under Sections 454 and 380 of IPC. Earlier, the petitioner was arrested and subsequently released on bail. Thereafter, due to his non-appearance before the Trial Court, a Non Bailable Warrant was issued against him. Pursuant to the same, the petitioner was arrested under a P.T Warrant on 11.08.2025. 3.The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner would submit that in the month of May 2025, this petitioner was arrested in connection with Crime No.91 of 2025 on the file of Othakadai Police Station and therefore, he was not able to appear before the Trial Court in the present case. Due to the said nonappearance a non-bailable warrant was issued against him.

Even thereafter, the arrest of the petitioner in the other case was not reported to the concerned Court. Subsequently, a P.T. Warrant was issued, pursuant to which the petitioner was produced before the Trial Court and remanded to judicial custody on 11.08.2025. Hence, he prays to grant bail to the petitioner. 4.The learned Government Advocate (Crl.Side) appearing for the respondent submitted that the petitioner was earlier arrested and released on bail and had appeared before the Trial Court. However, thereafter, he became involved in another offence and was taken into custody. During that period, he failed to appear before the concerned Court in the present case, which resulted in the issuance of a non-bailable warrant. Subsequently, upon intimation that the petitioner was in custody in another case, a P.T.

Warrant was issued and executed, and the petitioner was produced before the Trial Court.

5. This Court on perusal of the order passed by the Madurai Bench of this Court in Crl.OP(MD).No.17406 of 2025, filed by the petitioner in connection with Crime No.91 of 2025, wherein it is stated that the petitioner was involved in yet another offence in the month of May 2025. It is also stated that the petitioner is involved in 47 cases, and each cases are pending at different stages.

6. Considering the bad antecedents of the petitioner and the fact that the petitioner is involved in another offence, this Court is not inclined to grant bail, at this stage, as there is every likelihood of the petitioner indulging in similar activities and failing to appear before the Trial Court. 7.

Accordingly, this Criminal Original Petition is dismissed. 12-12-2025 Mpa Index:Yes/No Speaking/Non-speaking order Internet:Yes To 1.The State represented by The Inspector of Police, Maharajakadai Police Station, Krishnagiri District Crime No.238 of 2019 2.The Public Prosecutor, High Court of Madras.
