4. Considering the nature of offences alleged against the petitioner, the fact that anticipatory bail cannot be granted in respect of offences punishable under the Schedule Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Amendment Ordinance Act, 2014 and that taking into custody of the petitioner pending consideration of bail application could cause him irreparable hardship, this Court considers it appropriate to direct the learned III Additional District and Sessions Judge, Madurai, SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, to consider and dispose the bail application to be filed by the petitioner on the same day itself in connection with the case in Crime No.762 of 2009 on the file of the respondent police. Accordingly, this Criminal Original Petition is ordered.
