For Petitioner(s): Sanjay A For Respondent(s): Ms.R.S.Indira Government Advocate (Crl.Side) ORDER The petitioner apprehends arrest for the alleged offence under Section 326(a) of BNS Act, and 21(1) of TNP Act, 1957 Crime No. 115 of 2026 on the file of the respondent police seeks anticipatory bail. https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRL OP No. 20231 of 2026 __________ Page2 of 4 2. The case of the prosecution is that the accused intentionally obstructed the defacto complainant from carrying out his lawful work and caused disturbance at the place of occurrence. Hence, the case. 3. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner is an innocent and he has been falsely implicated in the present case and that he has not committed any offence as alleged by the prosecution. 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 Petitioners. 4. The learned Government Advocate (Criminal Side) appearing for the Respondent Police reiterated the prosecution case and submitted that six previous cases were pending against the petitioner out of which four cases were similar in nature. Hence, he opposed to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. 5. I have given my anxious consideration to either side submissions and perused the materials available on record. https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRL OP No. 20231 of 2026 __________ Page3 of 4 6. From the submissions made by the learned Government Advocate (Crl.Side), it is seen that the petitioner has got six previous cases out of which four cases were similar in nature, which clearly demonstrates that whenever he was granted anticipatory bail by the Courts, he has misused the liberty granted to him. In view of the same, if the petitioner is enlarged on anticipatory bail, he may be emboldened to indulge in similar offences in future without fear of law. Hence, taking into consideration of interest of the society at large, this Court is not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on anticipatory bail. 7.Accordingly, this criminal original petition stands dismissed. 28-07-2026 Index: Yes/No Speaking/Non-speaking order Neutral Citation: Yes/No NR To: 1.
