The learned Additional Public Prosecutor (Pondicherry) submits that the investigation is not yet completed and the petitioner is a history sheeter and if the petitioner is granted anticipatory bail, there is a possibility that he will tamper the witnesses and hamper the investigation and hence he vehemently opposed to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

Taking into consideration the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court is not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

¶20

Accordingly, this Criminal Original Petition is dismissed.
