He further submitted that the defacto complainant had harassed the petitioner and taken documents related to his house and other properties, and the complaint was filed with malicious intent. Therefore, the learned counsel seeks anticipatory bail to the petitioner. 4.The learned counsel for the Intervenor submitted that the petitioner had continuously threatened the defacto complainant and sexually assaulted her.

I have also gone through the FIR and it reveals various forms of harassment made by the petitioner against the victim which indicates that this is not a consensual relationship case, hence I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. 7.Accordingly, this Criminal Original Petition is dismissed. 23-10-2025 gbi Index:Yes/No Speaking/Non-speaking order Internet:Yes Neutral Citation:Yes/No https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRL OP No. 28782 of 2025 To 1.State rep by The Inspector of Police, AWPS Ambattur Police Station, Chennai.
