O R D E R

This Criminal Original Petition is filed for a direction to direct the I Additional District and Sessions Judge, (PCR) Tiruchirapalli to accept the surrender of the petitioners and consider the bail applications on the date of surrender in connection with Crime No.124 of 2022 on the file of the second respondent Police.

2. In view of the specific bar under Section 18 of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 and also taking into consideration the possibility of misusing the pious intention of the Parliament against innocent persons, there shall be a direction to the learned I Additional https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 1/2

CRL.O.P (MD) No.7922 of 2022 District and Sessions Judge, (PCR) Tiruchirapalli, to consider the petitioners bail application, preferably on the same day of his surrender in connection with Crime No.124 of 2022 on the file of the second respondent and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law after affording due opportunity to the victim under Section 15(a) of the SC/ST Act. The petitioners shall surrender before the concerned jurisdictional Court within a period of fifteen days from the date of the receipt of a copy of this Order.

3. It is needless to say that the Court below while disposing the bail petition shall look into the gravity of the offence, previous antecedents of the petitioners and pass orders. Mere direction issued by this Court to consider the bail petition on the same day does not amount to consider it favourably.

4. With the above direction, the Criminal Original Petition stands disposed of.
