BEFORE THE MADURAI BENCH OF MADRAS HIGH COURT ( Criminal Jurisdiction ) Date : 10.04.2026 PRESENT THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE P. DHANABAL CRL OP(MD). No. 7077 of 2026 1.P.Chinnammal 2.P.Renganathan ... Petitioners Vs State of Tamil Nadu rep. by The Inspector of Police, Thuraiyur Police Station, Tiruchirappalli District.

(Crime No.129 of 2026)

...Respondents/Complainant

For Petitioners : Mr.Azhageson Advocate.

For Respondent : Mr.P.Kottai Chamy Government Advocate (Crl. side) PETITION FOR ANTICIPATORY BAIL Under Sec.482 of BNSS PRAYER :- For Anticipatory Bail in Cr.No. 129 of 2026 on the file of the respondent police.

ORDER : The Court made the following order :- The petitioners, who apprehend arrest at the hands of the respondent for the offences punishable under Sections 296(b), 115(2), 118(1), 351(2) of BNS, 1/6

in Crime No.129 of 2026, on the file of the respondent police, seeks anticipatory bail.

2. The case of the prosecution is that on 27.03.2026 when the defacto complainant went to meet his friend Satheeshkumar in connection with family dispute. At that time, the accused persons, who are the relatives of the Satheeshkumar, gathered there and picked up wordy quarrel with him and also attacked with iron rod on his head and caused bleeding injuries. Hence, he was admitted in the hospital. Hence, the case.

3. The learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners are innocent and they were falsely implicated in this case and they are in no way connected in the above said incident. They have not committed any offence as alleged by the prosecution. Only due previous enmity, the present false case has been foisted against the petitioners. Hence, he prays to grant Anticipatory Bail to the petitioners.

4. The learned Government Advocate (Crl. Side) submits that the offences are grave in nature. Due to previous motive, the accused persons brutally attacked the defacto complainant with deadly weapon. Hence, he 2/6

vehemently opposed the grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioners. Investigation is still pending. The petitioners have no previous case. Injured in this case has been discharged from the hospital.

5. Heard both sides and perused the materials available on record.

6. Considering the rival submissions on either side and the nature of offences charged against the petitioners, considering the fact that the injured in this case has been discharged from the hospital, there is no previous case against the petitioners, and also considering all the facts and circumstances of the case, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners, subject to the following conditions:

[a] Accordingly, the petitioners are ordered to be released on anticipatory bail on condition to execute a bond for a sum of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only) each with two sureties each for a like sum to the satisfaction of the learned Judicial Magistrate, Thuraiyur and on further conditions that:

[b] the petitioners shall report before the respondent police, at 10.30 a.m., on every Saturday for a period of four weeks, thereafter as and when required for interrogation; 3/6

[c] the petitioners shall not commit any offences of similar nature.

[d] the petitioners shall not abscond either during investigation or trial.

[e] the petitioners shall not tamper with evidence or witness either during investigation or trial.

[f] On breach of any of the aforesaid conditions, the learned Judicial Magistrate/Trial Court is entitled to take appropriate action against the petitioners in accordance with law as if the conditions have been imposed and the petitioners released on bail by the learned Magistrate/Trial Court himself as laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in P.K.Shaji vs. State of Kerala [(2005)AIR SCW 5560]. [g] If the accused thereafter absconds, a fresh FIR can be registered under Section 269 B.N.S.
