2. Valarmathi ... Petitioners/Accused Rank Not Known Vs The State of Tamilnadu Rep.By, The Inspector of Police, Oddanchathiram Police Station, Oddanchathiram, Dindigul District.
(Cr.No.292 of 2026).
... Respondent/Complainant PRAYER :- For Antiipatory Bail in Crime No.292 of 2026 on the file of the respondent police.
For Petitioners : M/s.N.Madhava Govindan, Advocate.
For Respondent : Mr.N.Balasubramanian, Counsel For State of TN (Crl.Side) ORDER : The Court made the following order :- 1/6
The petitioners, who apprehend arrest at the hands of the respondent for the offences punishable under Sections 223(a) and 132 of BNS, 2023, in Crime No.292 of 2026 on the file of the respondent police, seeks anticipatory bail.
2. The case of the prosecution is that due to civil dispute between the petitioners and their neighbours, on 19.05.2026, at about 11.15 a.m, the petitioners went to Oddanchathiram Police Station and caused public nuisance and prevented the police from discharging their duty. Hence, the case.
3. The learned counsel for the petitioners would submit that the petitioners are innocent and they were falsely implicated in this case and they are no way connected in the above said incident. He would further submit that no public given a complaint against the petitioners and no previous cases is pending against the petitioners. Hence, he prays to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.
4. The learned Counsel For State of TN (Crl.Side) would submit that the offence committed by the accused is grave in nature and the 2/6
investigation is still pending. Hence, he opposes to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners. He would further submit that no previous cases is pending against the petitioners.
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, and no public given a complaint as against the petitioners and no previous cases is pending against the petitioners, 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 bail in the event of arrest or on their appearance, within a period of fifteen days from the date on which the order copy made ready, before the learned Judicial Magistrate, Oddanchathiram, Dindigul District, on condition that the petitioners shall 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 3/6
Judicial Magistrate concerned and on further conditions that: [b] the petitioners shall report before the respondent police, every Saturday at 10.30 a.m. for a period of four weeks, and thereafter as and when required for the interrogation.
[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 4/6
be registered under Section 269 B.N.S.
