The case of the prosecution is that due to previous enmity, the petitioners along with other accused person abused the defacto complainant in filthy language, attempted to attack and murder him. Hence, the case was registered. 3. 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 to grant bail to the petitioner. 4. The learned Government Advocate (Crl.Side) would submit that the occurrence is a retaliatory attack arising out of an earlier murder case. It is further submitted that there are about 14 accused involved in the occurrence and the petitioner has one previous criminal case. If the petitioner is enlarged on bail, there is every possibility of retaliation and breach of peace. 5. I have given anxious consideration to the submissions made by the learned counsel on either side. 6. This Court is of the view that the present occurrence appears to have arisen as a retaliatory act for the earlier murder. Considering the nature of the https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRL OP No. 16562 of 2026 __________ Page3 of 4 allegation, the fact that as many as 14 accused are involved in the occurrence, and as rightly contended by the learned Government Advocate (Crl.Side), if the petitioner is enlarged on bail, there is every possibility of retaliation and breach of peace. 7.
