2. The allegation against the petitioner is that the defacto complainant had purchased the vacant land measuring to an extent of 2100 sq.feet from one Jayakumar in the year 1995 and thereafter, she has not developed the property
and kept it in idle condition. It is alleged that in the year 2019, she came to know that some unknown person has built a house in her property thereby, she verified with the registration department and found that a sale deed was registered in the name of one G.Kavitha, who in turn sold the property in favour petitioner's wife in the year 2016. Hence, the complaint.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner submits that petitioner is an innocent person and she has been falsely implicated in this case. He submits that petitioner is the husband of one Banumathi,who is a third party purchaser of the subject property. He also submits that the petitioner is ready to abide by any conditions that may be imposed by this Court and prays for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner.
4. Learned Government Advocate (Criminal Side) for the respondent police, reiterated the prosecution case and reported that there are totally 8 accused in this case and the petitioner is arrayed as A7. During the course of investigation, it came to light that all the accused persons colluded together by impersonation by Nalini/A4 and executed a sale deed in favour of one G.Kavitha, who in-turn sold the property in favour of this petitioner's wife. Hence, he opposed to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.
5. Heard both sides and perused the materials available on record.
6. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, nature of allegations, submissions made by the learned counsel on either side, the overtact leveled against this petitioner and all the allegations against him is borne out of records, the custodial interrogation of the petitioner is not necessary in this case, hence, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.
