CRL OP(MD). No.10469 of 2023 section 164 of Cr.P.C, it is seen that the petitioner herein committed sexual assault on the victim on four occasions and only after hearing the noise of the public he came out and the victim was secured. Therefore the petitioner has committed very serious offence against the minor victim girl, hence custodial interrogation of the petitioner is very much required in this case, hence this court is not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

5. In the result, the petition stands dismissed. sd/- 14/06/2023 / TRUE COPY / /06/2023 Sub-Assistant Registrar (C.S.) Madurai Bench of Madras High Court, Madurai - 625 023.
