The case of the prosecution is that due to the family dispute, on 02.04.2026, the petitioner and her husband came to the defacto complainant's house, both are abused in filthy language and assaulted her. The petitioner poured the Hot Milk on her left hand, due to which the defacto complainant sustained injuries and admitted in the hospital. Hence, the complaint. 3. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent and he was falsely implicated in this case and he is no way connected in the above said incident. He has not committed any offence as alleged by the prosecution. The petitioner and the defacto complainant are residing in different floor of the same building. There is a dispute in respect of occupation of the floor. To resolve the issue only the petitioner and her wife came to the defacto complainant's house. With an malafide intention she has lodged the present complaint. Hence, he prays to grant Anticipatory Bail to the petitioner. 4. The learned Government Advocate (Crl. Side) submits that the offences are grave in nature. The petitioner along with his wife poured the hot 2/6 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis Crl.O.P.(MD)No.9592 of 2026 milk on the left hand of the defacto complainant. Hence, she sustained severe burn injury. Now the injured was discharged from the hospital. The petitioner has no previous case. He opposed the grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. 5.The learned counsel appearing for the intervenor submitted that the petitioner along with his wife poured the hot milk on the defacto complainant and she sustained burn injuries and though she was discharged from the Government hospital, still she is taking treatment in private hospital. Hence, he strongly opposed the grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. 6. Heard both sides and perused the materials available on record. 7. Considering the rival submissions on either side and the nature of offences charged against the petitioner, there is a family dispute between the family members, the defacto complainant is none other than the petitioner's brother's wife and due to family dispute this occurrence is happened and injured was discharged from the hospital, the petitioner has no previous case and considering all other facts and circumstances of the case, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner, subject to the following conditions: [a] Accordingly, the petitioner is ordered to be released on bail 3/6 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis Crl.O.P.(MD)No.9592 of 2026 in the event of arrest or on his appearance, within a period of fifteen days from the date on which the order copy made ready, before the learned Judicial Magistrate No.II, Madurai, on condition that the petitioner 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 learned Magistrate concerned and on further condition that: [b] the petitioner shall report before the respondent police daily at 10.30 a.m., until further orders; [c] the petitioner shall not commit any offences of similar nature.
