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 petitioner submitted that the petitioner is an innocent person and he has not committed any offence as alleged by the prosecution. He has been falsely roped into the offence since his son is arrayed as A1. This is the second petition for anticipatory bail. Hence, he prays for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner.
