Hence, the complaint was registered 3. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner is innocent and has been incarcerated since 02.06.2026 and that she has been falsely implicated in this case. He further submitted that the petitioner is ready to abide by any stringent conditions that may be imposed by this Court. Hence, he prays for grant of bail to the Petitioner. 4. Per contra, the learned Government Advocate (Criminal Side) appearing for the Respondent Police reiterated the prosecution case and submitted that the petitioner has got one previous case similar in nature, pending against him. However, he opposed the grant of bail to the Petitioner. 5. At this juncture, the learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner was enlarged on bail in previous case in Crl.OP.No.15637 of 2026. 6.

Considering the facts and circumstances of the case; taking note of the submission made by the learned Government Advocate (Crl.Side); though the petitoiner has one previous case, considering the fact that the petitioner has been in incarceration since 02.06.2026 and in furtherance of her cheating, no serious consequences have taken place, as the Power of Attorney now stands only in the name of the petitioner. In such view of the circumstances, this Court is inclined to grant bail to the petitioners, subject to certain conditions. 8. Accordingly, the petitioner is ordered to be released on bail on her executing a bond for a sum of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand only) with two sureties each, for a like sum to the satisfaction of the learned Judicial Magistrate-I, Tambaram, and on further conditions that: [a] the sureties shall affix their photographs and Left Thumb Impression in the Application for Surety ship [Judicial Form No.46 annexed to 'The Criminal Rules of Practice, 2019'].
