2. The case of the prosecution is that on 06.04.2011, the petitioners being power agents, executed sale deed in favour of the defacto complainant. Subsequently, it was revealed that the petitioner had alienated the very same property in favour of a third party even prior to the execution of the aforesaid sale deed in favour of the defacto complainant. Hence, the complaint.

3. The learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that the petitioners are innocent persons and they have not committed any offences as alleged by the prosecution. He further submitted that the 2/7

petitioners are ready and willing to abide by any conditions which may be imposed by this Court. Hence, he seeks anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

4. The learned Government Advocate (Criminal Side) for the respondent police submitted that there are no previous cases pending against the petitioners. Hence, he opposed for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

5. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and the petitioner had complied with conditions granted in the interim anticipatory bail, hence the anticipatory bail is made absolute, since there are no previous cases pending against the petitioners, this Court is inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners, subject to certain conditions.

6.Accordingly, this petition is allowed and the petitioners are ordered to be released on bail in the event of arrest or on their appearance, on condition 3/7

that the petitioners shall execute a bond for a sum of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only) with two sureties each for a like sum to the satisfaction of the Judicial Magistrate Court No.IV, Thoothukudi, within a period of fifteen days from the date on which the order copy is made ready and on further conditions that:

[c]the petitioners shall not tamper with the evidence or witness either during investigation or trial;

[d]the petitioners shall not abscond either during investigation or trial;

[e]On breach of any of the aforesaid 4/7
