2. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner would submit that the accused/respondents 2 to 4 herein on 28.06.2024 trespassed into house of the petitioner/ defacto complainant used obscene words and caused criminal intimidation and also outraged the modesty of the daughter of the petitioner and also damaged the iron gate and attempted to attack the petitioner with sickle, thereby complaint has been lodged before the first respondent and they registered a case in Crime No.348 of 2024 for the offences under Sections 294(b), 427 and 506(ii) of IPC. Thereafter the respondents 2 to 4 approached the Principal Sessions Court, Thanjavur for grant of anticipatory bail and the same was allowed on 18.10.2024. After release on bail, they disobeyed the condition of the Sessions Court and they repeatedly threatened the petitioner and her family members. Again on 10.04.2026 the respondents 2 to 4 armed with deadly weapons attempted to 2/6

assault the petitioner and her husband. Therefore on 16.04.2026 the petitioner lodged the online complaint before the first respondent and the respondents misused their liberty granted by the Court, repeatedly intimidated the complainant, tampering with witnesses and caused to the life and safety of the family members, and thereby anticipatory bail granted to the respondents 2 to 4 has to be cancelled.

3. The learned counsel appearing for respondents 2 to 4 would submit that a false complaint has been lodged by the petitioner/defacto complainant and based on the same a case has been registered in Crime No.348 of 2024 for the offences under Sections 294(b), 427 and 506(ii) of IPC and thereafter they approached the Principal Sessions Court, Thanjavur for grant of anticipatory bail and the learned Sessions Judge after considering the nature of offence and the facts and circumstances of the case and the fact that no body was discharged from the hospital granted anticipatory bail and thereafter onceagain the same defacto complainant lodged a false complaint and and nothing has happened and thereby a false complaint has been lodged as against the respondents 2 to 4 and they have violated the conditions imposed by the Sessions Court. Thereafter only to harass the respondents 2 to 4 the present false complaint has been filed and only to 3/6

file the present petition they created problem, and thereby the present petition is liable to be dismissed.

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

5. On perusal of records, it is seen that based on the complaint lodged by the petitioner a case has been registered in Crime No.348 of 2024 for the offences under Sections 294(b), 427 and 506(ii) of IPC and thereafter the respondents 2 to 4 have approached the Sessions Court for grant of anticipatory bail in Crl.M.P.No.7369 of 2024 and the same was granted. According to the petitioner after grant of anticipatory bail once again they indulged in similar kind of offence but inorder to substantiate the same, no any records produced by them and mere allegations are not sufficient to prove the alleged offence and there are no grounds to cancel the anticipatory bail granted by the Sessions Court and thereby the petition has no merits and deserves to be dismissed.

8.Accordingly the Criminal Original Petition stands dismissed. (P D B J) 12.06.2026 aav 4/6
