    Case Summary: CMP.No.1019/2026 Court Decision: The Principal Sessions Judge dismissed Manikandan's bail petition on March 24, 2026. The court found that while procedural irregularities existed in the arrest (contradictions in arrest location and delayed furnishing of grounds of arrest), the gravity of the alleged offense, the early investigation stage, risk of witness tampering, and one accused still absconding justified continued judicial custody. Key Facts: Manikandan, a suspended home guard police officer, was arrested for armed robbery of 4kg+ gold and ₹5.5 lakh cash. He was allegedly one of two masterminds among nine accused, with eight arrested. The court rejected arguments that he was falsely implicated based solely on a co-accused's confession, noting the offense's seriousness warranted custody. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
