2.

CRL OP(MD). No.19542 of 2019 to A3 in this case. But then, the said accused/A3 is not having any previous case. On the other hand, the petitioner is having one previous case of the same nature. The learned Government Advocate (Crl. Side) would point that the petitioner is facing trial in C.C.No.17 of 2018, on the file of the learned Judicial Magistrate No.III, Thoothukudi. Since the antecedents of the petitioner are not good, I am not inclined to grant relief. The criminal original petition stands dismissed. The only course open to the petitioner is to surrender and apply for regular bail.
