2.The case of the prosecution is that the petitioners along with other accused under the pretext of love had kidnapped the victim girl. When the father of the victim questioned the same, the petitioners herein abused him, attacked him and also threatened with fire consequences.

¶3Heard both side and perused the materials available on record including the First Information Report CRL OP(MD). No.7106 of 2023

¶4It is seen that the petitioners along with the first accused under the pretext of love had kidnapped the victim girl. They also attacked the father of the victim, due to which he sustained grievous injuries. Further there is specific overt act as against the accused persons, as such custodial interrogation of the petitioners is very much required in this case, hence this court is not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

¶5In the result, the petition stands dismissed. sd/- 18/04/2023 / TRUE COPY / /04/2023 Sub-Assistant Registrar (C.S.) Madurai Bench of Madras High Court, Madurai - 625 023. AAV To
