Cr.No.102/2024

...Respondent /Complainant

For Petitioners: Mr.S.MP.AMALAN Advocate.

For Respondent : Mr.E.ANTONY SAHAYA PRABAHAR Additional Public Prosecutor PETITION FOR ANTICIPATORY BAIL Under Sec.438 of Cr.P.C. PRAYER :- For Bail in Crime No.102 of 2024 on the file of the Respondent Police. ORDER : The Court made the following order :- The petitioners, apprehending arrest at the hands of the respondent Police in connection with the case in Crime No.102 of 2024, for the offence punishable under 1/3

Section 174 Cr.P.C. altered into 306 IPC, have filed this petition seeking anticipatory bail.

2. The case of the prosecution is that the defacto complainant's sister, namely, Abinaya and the first petitioner had worked in A-to-Z Hospital, Tanjore and both had loved each other. After knowing about the love relationship between them, the Hospital Management had terminated them from the hospital. Thereafter, since the first petitioner has refused to marry the defacto complainant's sister, she gave a complaint before the Superintendent of Police Thanjavur on 20.03.2024 and she went to the petitioners' house to know the whereabouts of the first petitioner, at that time, the second petitioner, who is the father of the first petitioner, has refused to give the details of the first petitioner. Hence, she committed suicide.

3. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the petitioners are innocent persons and they have not committed any offence as alleged by the prosecution. He further submits that the deceased had a mental depression, for which, she was also taking treatment and the petitioners had never abetted the deceased to commit suicide. Therefore, he prays for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

4. The learned Additional Public Prosecutor appearing for the respondent Police opposes for grant of anticipatory bail on the ground that the investigation is 2/3

yet to be completed.

5. Considering the overt act attributed against the petitioners, this court is of the view that it is not a fit case for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

6. Accordingly, this Criminal Original Petition is dismissed. sd/- 04/04/2024 / TRUE COPY / /04/2024 Sub-Assistant Registrar ( C.S. I / II / III / IV ) Madurai Bench of Madras High Court, Madurai - 625 023.
