2.The case of the prosecution is that on 20.07.2023 at about 6.30 p.m., the 1/5

deceased went to play Cricket along with his child to Anna Nagar. At about 7.30 p.m., one of the friend of the deceased namely Sudhan Prabhu informed the defacto complainant that at about 7.15 p.m., while the deceased was proceeding in his twowheeler at Vimala Hospital Road, the accused came in two-wheelers and murdered the deceased. Hence, the complaint.

3.The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner did not commit any offences as alleged by the prosecution. Based on the confession statement of the first accused, the petitioner was arrayed as 9th accused. The allegation levelled against the petitioner is that he drove the car and thereby helped the other accused to commit the murder of the deceased. In fact, he was detained as a Goonda by an order dated 16.09.2023 and the same was revoked by the Advisory Board, by the order dated 30.10.2023. Actually, the deceased is a rowdy element. Further, the co-accused namely A2 to A5 were enlarged on bail by the concerned trial Court. Hence, he prays for grant bail to the petitioner. 4.

The learned Additional Public Prosecutor appearing for the respondent would submit that the petitioner is having four previous cass, out of which, one is under SC/ST Act Cases, another is under 110 of Cr.P.C., and other cases were registered under 506(ii) of IPC. Hence, he objected to grant bail to the petitioner. 5.Heard.

Information Report.

6.Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and also considering the period of incarceration suffered by the petitioner and co-accused were already enlarged on bail by the concerned trial Court, this Court is inclined to grant bail to the petitioner with certain conditions.
