¶17

It is a case of jumped bail. The petitioner who is A3 in this case is facing trial in S.C No.09 of 2017 on the file of the Sessions Judge, Fast Track Court, Ariyalur. Since he did not appear before the trial Court, the trial Judge issued Non Bailable Warrant against the petitioner and pursuant to which, the petitioner has approached this Court seeking for anticipatory bail.

¶18

The learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner was in the custody of Pudukottai Police, due to which, the petitioner did not appear before the Court and thereby, the trial Court has issued NBW. Therefore, he prays to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

The learned Additional Public Prosecutor vehemently opposed stating that the petitioner who is A3 in this case is facing trial in S.C No.09 of 2017 for the offences under Sections 307 r/w.34, 452, 394 r/w.397 and 392 of IPC.
