The case of the prosecution is that while the respondent police were on surveillance duty, they found the petitioner and other accused standing on the roadside armed with deadly weapons and threatening the public. When the police attempted to intervene, the petitioner abused them in filthy language and attempted to assault them with a knife. Hence, the case was registered. 3. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner is innocent and he has not committed any offence as alleged by the defacto complainant and he has been falsely implicated in this case. He further submitted that he is ready to abide by any conditions that may be imposed by this Court. Hence, he prayed for grant of bail to the petitioner. 4. The learned Government Advocate (Crl.Side) appearing for the respondent police would submit that the petitioner has got ten previous cases and would submit that if the petitioner is enlarged on bail, it would cause threat to the society. 5. I have given anxious consideration to the submissions made by the learned counsel on either side. 6. Considering the criminal antecedents of the petitioner, as rightly contended by the learned Government Advocate (Crl.Side), if the petitioner is https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRL OP No. 16462 of 2026 __________ Page3 of 4 enlarged on bail, it would cause a threat to society.
