Kalaiarasan v. State represented by The Inspector of Police
Case brief
What is this about?
Anticipatory bail dismissed — CRL OP No.7149 of 2026, Madras High Court, C.Kumarappan J., dated 18-03-2026 — Section 482 BNSS — Section 303(2) Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita — theft of Toyota Innova car Reg.No.PY 05 VF 5327 — Crime No.372 of 2025, Neyveli Township Police Station, Cuddalore District — petitioner/A4 Kalaiarasan — two previous cases under TNPPDL Act and Tamil Nadu Prohibition of Harassment of Women Act — bail liberty misused — past conduct — petition dismissed.
What did the court decide?
Considering the nature of the allegation against the petitioner and his past conduct (two previous cases under the TNPPDL Act and the Tamil Nadu Prohibition of Harassment of Women Act), the Court is of the firm view that, as and when the petitioner was enlarged on bail, he subverted justice and misused the liberty; hence he does not deserve anticipatory bail.
